Nissan Armada Springs

[jrpontiac]

Just for reference. 1097a1 with Nissan Armada springs in the front. Moog 81085, 3/4 coil cut. I put the springs in without cutting and it was too much. Have done nothing to the back. About 2.5 lift. Tires are 40's.

Maybe add winch and hummercore brush guard and it might put you at the 2 inch lift mark? I believe 2 inch spring lift is acceptable and safe still

Perfect and nice job. I think I cut one full turn in the front but a quarter turn is negligible. You should do the rears too. It needs the rear done more than the front usually because not only is the rear lighter but the stock springs are sometime 3 times stiffer. Also the rears mounts are taller so you only cut 1/3 coil off and you can use the daystar spacer for that perfect level ride.

Thanks for finally answering the question of what Armanda springs!!

Does anyone know how high the center frame under the front and rear differentials should be off the ground in the stock configuration? I'm trying to see how much lift I've added.

Does the a1 have the heavy spring perches ? And did you have to ream out springs for the front?

It’s in the TM from what I recall min 16” under the center diff brackets

Goodness, I'm sitting at 24". It's not figured out yet. I think when I get it rolling back and forth it will settle down.
