Nissan Xterra & Frontier. Leaf Springs Replacement.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- This is my video for when my father and I replaced the OEM broken leaf springs of my 2006 Nissan Xterra. I replaced it with new OME ARB CS061r 4+2 leaf springs, new greasable shackles, new bushings and new u-bolts. It increased the rear lift of the Xterra from 34.5 inches to 37 inches.
I hope you find it helpful.
Thank you for your time to show how can change the leaf springs x xterra06
Great job man. Just did this....and i had to go back and put more grease on bushings because they wouldn't slide properly...never mind the two ignorant arm chair quarterbacks about grease....totally necessary
I am the American version of this Slavic gentleman. He covers everything in grease whereas I cover everything in anti-seize.
Any suspension work is way harder and takes longer without an impact driver and air ratchet.
Absolutely agree, would be nice to get those tools from a happy viewer. 😉
@@sergiikvasnyi188 craigslist or Facebook market. Ppl practically giving them away for like $50. Especially spiteful x-wives and x-gfs 😂
the man loves his grease
Probably lives in rust belt
Didn’t need to take the bumper and all that off.. just jack the body up, Lower the axel keep the front and rear bolt in the leaf spring attached undo the spring pack slide in new spring, decompress pack put on ubolt let it back down done
good video- I just did mine (2012 xterra) before watching this - too bad! I recommend taking off corner plastic trim for access as you show, i just loosened screws and bent it up out of the way. Also always replace shackles when you do the spring packs. OEM shackles are press fit pins and hard to remove. Mine were seized, and rusted, but i didn't have shackles so reused. will advise how that goes...... Used penetrant and let it sit for a day, then started with a screwdriver, then 1 then another pickle fork and just pounded and pounded until they moved!. Also as a safety issue, a spring has retained energy-release one end before removing ubolt plate.....mine shot off when i loosened last of the 4 nuts...keep hands clear. Another idea - My X only broke BOTTOM (3rd) leaf, i think i would just replace that leaf if i had to do it again, given the bend remaining in the other 2. A spring shop (not autozone/ canadian tire) can supply the part and it would be less work and less cost...
Really helpful video, thank you.
Thanks!

Very helpful video. Did you do anything with the front to make up for the 2.5" lift in the rear?
I grabbed the SAME grease. for mine!!
Hey, Nice job. Sergii I have heard complaints that this setup becomes very noisy with popping sounds. Also, the ride becomes very rough. Any comments or findings?
Hello, I am riding with a trailer twice or three times a week and still had no complaints. Also there are air suspension installed as well. Very happy with it.
