tips on a smoother ride?

probably a question that has been asked before...just trying to make my ride on my xterra smoother. i don't want to make all the mods i can but am willing to spend a good amount. what are the basics? (i'm new to this thanks!:confused: )

Would you like to restate your question?:bloated:

It is a truck, it rides like a truck!

Only way to "improve" the ride is to buy Bilstien shocks. Part #'s are available on this site.

I found the greatest improvement when I installed HD torsion bars.

Toy Man

Yeah, go to www.spencerlowracing.com

He's got the Bilsteins you need, and is also carrying the HD Nismo Torsion bars now. I think you'd get out of there for around $500 and have a very smooth ride over bumps, etc.

I have the "soft" suspension (only two leaves in rears), and when going over an ice berm at the end of my driveway two days ago, I got bounced all over the place...We're talking banging my head on the roof & sidebeam (ouch!)...I really wasn't expecting that...I was expecting a *solid* suspension, with little or no "give" to it...

You know...A *truck* suspension... :D

This thing wallows like a Cadillac... :p

...And that *hurt*... :mad:

The same place (SLR), has the best 3-leaf Add-A-leaf out there. Our club has tested all the ones out there, and theirs comes out on top.
