Is your suspension like this?
I've been looking for a lift for my 02 SC fronty and I think I know what I want now. But looked under my truck and now I am confused. I know the SCs are a little lower than other frontys, but my leaf springs are under the axle, not over. I thought all of the fronty's and xterras were the over type.
www.mrski.com/nissan/rearsuspension.jpg I wonder if a regular 2wd lift like from AC or Calmini will fit my SC. Also, I have sway bars F & R. Can I use those too with the lift? I think I need to call them to find out. Anybody lifted a 2wd SC X? And look at the bump stops, they are huge! |

xterras and 2wd frontys are spring under in the rear. you can use the sway bars but you'll need extensions.

Cool, I thought maybe my SC was totally different. Just ordered some US wheels for $32 buck a pop! That is sooooooo cheap! Got em in 15x8 6x5.5 bolt pattern with a 4.75" backspacing.
Here is what it should look like after I'm done: |

wheels are okay but watchout...
There have been some real concentricity issues with the Rockcrawler wheels. Those look to be the same. I had a set, and shortly after I had them installed, I never seemed to be able to get them to balance out. Suspecting something, I took them to work and mounted them to our big lathe and indicated the centerhole, and then the boltholes. I found that they were out of concentricity by about 3/16" to as much as 1/4". That is a little too much for my liking.
I'm not saying they are bad, or that yours will be that way, just a heads up. You actually have to indicate the edges in order to see the problem. The only other way will be to add a *bunch* of weight to balance them out. Those wheels are stamped out and then welded to the outer rim as far as I could tell. |
