Woah! It always blows my mind when a new coilover comes out for a car that was discontinued in 2015. Those look amazing. I'd get em if I didn't just buy the Nisstec ones

I believe the new gen Frontiers front suspension remained unchanged. So they get to make stuff for the current truck, and we luck out.

I wanna know stroke measurements on these. At the price they better provide more travel than the MKll's and the new Fox option.

Yep.
Exact extended length and stroke numbers need to be published.

for that price i'll stick with a known brand like my Icons. They'd probably really make a killing if they sold just the top hat / upper mount to provide an alternative to PRG. There probably is another option out there, we just don't know about it.

Ive only seen stroke numbers on Radflo, the benchmark, and now the MKII's. I Think the realization with MKII's made folks aware that its worth finding out beforehand.

Agree. I wonder if stroke on all new ones are short too. ADO guy was gonna go off and measure on FB xterra crew and I never saw a response(but may have missed it)

CJD guy was first to point t out short stroke so hoping for better on this one and haven’t given up hope on any yet. Just cautious

So, I sent an email asking CJD if they had the travel/extended/compressed numbers and or if they had released them yet. I pasted their response below, obviously, they did answer my question, I asked if they had them not what they were but still kinda feels like a smartass response to me. Anyway, I sent a follow-up asking for the actual numbers.

Per CJD "Yes we do know the numbers are we are the ones who designed the needed lengths. They were designed to work with the CJD Racing titan swap kit to use the full wheel travel of the kit"

I'd say their wheel travel is likely up there then as I trust them and they do some extreme stuff with Nissans. It is a smart ass answer...and its possible they're keeping it close to their chest as all their competitors are chasing the market Nisstec fumbled with the MKII.

They'll have to forgive us for being skeptical after many folks have gotten duped by Nisstec in to thinking they were buying Radflo equivalent struts.

Thanks for trying to get numbers out of them.

I agree I do trust them as well, I've purchased other items from them, and the product quality and customer support were top notch. I just don't really understand any hesitancy to release the numbers unless they lack travel like the MKII, and I asked specifically this time and they may answer with numbers and the problem will be solved. We know the max travel an aftermarket titan uca and stock lca can have, thus we just need to confirm the shock also has that much travel, if it does, great, release the numbers to show it and everyone is happy. I dont see how it hurts them to show that they work as intended, unlike the MKII. Ill keep everyone updated if I hear back.

If the info doesn't come out I'll likely buy the Radflo 2.5s from them when I'm ready...or talk to them on the phone and get the full scoop. Them and ADO are my favorites right now. Z1 did too much advertising in the NIsstec gripe threads. Thought it wasn't very classy. Still order from them but just didn't care for their approach so they don't get put up on a pedestal much in my mind other than I want them to stay in buisness....if that makes sense.

My apologies for my ignorance. What's the latest issues going on with the MKII coilovers? I noticed that mine (TS version) are making a little bit of noise and the paint is already starting to fade fasters than my radflo 2.0. I am curious about these Lock coilovers.

NissTec T-Swap Mk II's Questions (Travel / Preload...

Hey yall Earlier today I removed my front coils to test my fender clearance at full stuff limited by the bump stops and to adjust the preload up some. I was curious if I needed to trim the fenders and ended up getting my answer but thats unrelated. Since I was there I decided to test my wheel...

Just that they provide about 8" of travel vs the 'assumed' 10" or more that Radflo provides. Thats really it. There's the 'Nisstec sucks and won't answer their phones' issue...but that's separate from this one.

Just tripped across this...so Fox from ADO has 9.3" of travel available...approximately. Chad must have responded on FB and I missed it.

Fox Titan Swap Option

May prove to be a good Tswap option (which is always welcomed). Still awaiting actual specs.

Why do you trust them? Have you used CJD personally?

Just my interactions with them on the facebook group and an email convo I had with them.

I have spent thousands with them and it is the worst mistake I’ve made. Mike is not a man of his word. He still owes me work and parts. I have him on film acknowledging this and he said on camera he was not going to finish. I will never recommend CJD for parts and especially not for work done by Mike. They are the new PRG!! Buyer Beware. He talks a great game but does not produce. I’ve had to modify, get rid of, prematurely fix, or redesign every CJD item that was ever on my rig. Stay away!! He charged tax on labor, charged for parts he did not put on, took months longer than was quoted, did backyard mechanic work, did not cycle the suspension even tho he charged for it, did not do any clearance work even tho he charged for it, left bolts way too long, tore boots and did not replace them…List goes on but you get it. I was just curious if you had a personal experience.

Ive purchased a couple CJD items and have been very satisfied. No direct interaction regarding fabrication or custom work though, so cant speak to that.
