Just make sure everything looks good, aligns good and drives good.

 

[duckhunter71]

Get it put back together and if it still bothers you, sell it and start over.

 

[usmc xterra]

Argg! Always worse than you think. Hope it comes quick. Wonder if you can get a real spring pack outta this? MC

 

[RiNkY]

Talking of rear spring packs. Notice alot less people in 06's and 07's complaining about the bottoming out? I think they already made a 'quiet' upgrade to the spring rate on the 06's / 07's. A few local guys have 07's here in AZ and have said they only felt it bottom out maybe once or twice when off road. 05's bottom out if you drive over a small pot hole.

I might have to poke my head under the back of an '07 next time I find myself at the nissan delear.

Ive got an '06 and I can get it to bottom out going into my driveway. If thats better then I feel bad for any of you that have an '05. I'm going to wait on the Rancho system and maybe get the Timbrens then.

X2, well, before my shackles.

 

[Erick]

Not to hijack the thread too much, but I have a thought or two on this. With my 05, I was bottoming out all over until my mods. With my AAL and shackles, plus the Rancho 9000x's I haven't bottomed out once over the same spots I always had problems with.

 

[RiNkY]

Maybe it's the 07's that have the fix - rather than the 06's.

 

[dragonplayboy]

dude sneak into the body shop and burn that bitch to the ground, it'll never drive right again.

 

[captandy]

I"ll split the 10 years for arson and insurance fraud with you!Give me a dragonplayboy tee-shirt and a maslk!I thought about the same thing,,but the whole Karma factor...Insurance and body people ASSURE ME(?) it will be perfect,,not just looks but drive as well..A whole series of diagnostics and lifetime gaurentee ,we will see.

 

[BioMan]

Yeah, good luck with that. I'm sure they'll do a fine job but the rig will never be the same. I was impressed overall with the work done on my truck but there are a few very minor things that I notice.

When I broke my leaf spring over the summer I could not get a replacement from Nissan because the part number changed and they removed the old part number from inventory. They had no inventory of the new part.

I say that's proof enough to say they remanufactured the part. Shame they don't recall the older X's and replace, not a safety issue tho I guess.
