Nissan Frontier Leveling Kit 2.5inch

[@tomford372]

You showed more detail installing lug nuts. I was looking for lift kit detail.

[@gainingaltitude1562]

If you have question about the lift just let me know. (NOTE) I no longer have this lift installed as I’ve installed a new one.

[@rickwhitfield7617]

Did u not install bump stops...assuming u r still running OEM UCAs?

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Yooo! No bump stops with this set up and yes OEM UCAs. I run a new suspension set up now!

[@jakobapodaca2004]

Hey bro i recently got a 2016 frontier, can you please let me know what size of all terrain tires you got and what paint you used to paint the rear bumper thanks.

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Yooo, in this video I have 265/70 R16. I now have 265/75 R16 tires on the newer videos. Also, for painting the rear bumper I used the mat black plasti dip spray can.

[@ELEVOPR]

What if you can high heat that plastic wheel inner liner and just shape it and stretch it to go in more? There is a lot of empty space behind those wheel liners.

[@gainingaltitude1562]

That is definitely an option if you stick with stock rims and tires. If you go up in size your best bet to eliminate any rubbing would be to cut the pinch weld then mold the plastic wheel liner with a heat gun. I recently did this mod a few months ago.

[@treylilly386]

Did you do the grille and rear bumper yourself? Looks great, I’m wanting to add the same lift to mine and the black touches are class.

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Yes I did! I used plasti-dip for the front grill and rear bumper along with the badges. Pretty simple job just take your time with masking. Thanks for watching.

[@carlosdanger4648]

You can get a black perm rear bumper on eBay for $165

[@ELEVOPR]

Great Stuff, Thanks for sharing. So is your Frontier a 4.0 Engine? Also did you have to do anything to the back of the Frontier for leveling reasons or you left it stock?

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Hey @ELEVOPR, no my frontier is a 3.8L , the rough country kit came with a rear shackles that I installed at the same time. So the lift was both front and rear. Note: I removed the Rough country spacer lift and installed a proper suspension lift. I go over this in my most recent video. Sorry for the late reply!

[@armandoarroyo]

Hi, why did you pick the suspension lift kit instead of the leveling spacer kit? Thanks

[@moustakakisman]

do you have contact after lift with upper control arm and the strut basket? I think you have now very limit down travel

[@gainingaltitude1562]

After the lift I have had no upper control arm contact at all. If you would like to get into serious off-roading I would suggest upgrading the suspension. If you install the lift and like to go on light trails you wouldn't have any issues.

[@AyGrom]

So you are still running the stock tire size 265/70 in this video? They look bigger 🤔

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Yup! I’m running the GoodYear Wrangler DuraTracs at the stock tire size.

[@DylanNocito123]

Hey man, how does it ride with this lift on it? And do you get any coil bucket contact when offroad?

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Hey @dylan nocitio123, with just the leveling kit it rides pretty good. Of course at high speeds around corners you will experience some body roll, but with stock suspension and this kit the ride is fairly stiff. So far I have not had any coil bucket contact while driving on maintenance trails/fire roads. Thanks for watching!

[@carlosdanger4648]

I heard even a 1 inch will cause coil bucket contact

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Not in my case, thankfully. Just be sure to get adjustable cam-bolts and get your camber within spec to avoid any possible issues.

[@luketauzin8321]

Can I fit 285 65 18 tires with a 2.5 leveling

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Hey Luke. You might experience some tire rubbing, and might have to do a melt mod for the front tires. If you run A/T tires you will most likely rub.

[@Iliketoys]

Is the truck 4wd?

[@seanvega387]

No, thumbnail says 2wd

[@Bung_Holio]

Literally says 2wd in the thumbnail fumb duck

[@salvadorgarcia9108]

Is your truck a Nissan frontier?

[@SuperKimtuan]

After you put in the lift, you need go do alignment?

[@gainingaltitude1562]

Yes, it is recommended to get an alignment after a lift this way you prevent any uneven tire wear. I also recommend going to an alignment shop that ONLY specializes in Alignments. Thanks for stopping by!

[@King_TuTT]

why lift a 2x4? seems like a waste. LOL. whats next lifting a smart car?

[@King_TuTT]

@@blueslime1703 it does look nice.

[@razx1331]

Clearance and because he wanted to.

[@jesseflores9087]

desert prerunners are 2wd

[@cmorebutts8668]

It's for clearance, you don't need a 4wd to go everywhere you snooty douche

[@16sondra]

Video was a waste of my time. You showed us nothing
