2nd Gen Armadas and QX56/QX80's fit 35's no lift, 37's with 2" lift.
More and more vehicles are coming with 33s from the factory now adays it makes fitting 35's and 37's much easier.
The Titan swap significantly changes the driving dynamics of the vehicle. It feels more sporty and planted and the ride quality is just better overall, it is very noticeable.
With that being said, is it worth the extra $$ for dd and camping? Its debatable, I think the improved ride quality and...
The ARB doesnt seem to account for the US spec version of the 2011+ QX56/QX80 nor the new Armada.
EDIT: For clarification, I have a 2006 Frontier and have experience with the platform. I know the R180 and can identify it easily just by looking at it. Every 2nd Gen Armada/QX56/QX80 I have looked...

Aluminum case that cracks quickly when loaded in reverse and broken CV's where they enter the...
2 of the Tacoma CBI Moab 2.0 bumper slots lined up with the QX56 bumper mounts, but the frame rails were wider and the rest of the holes didnt line up.
It was easy to just cut off the mount locations of the bumper and weld on some custom ones. Decision was made do just do the same to the frame...
Making sure these 17" Icon wheels clear the brake calipers, they do.

37's no lift! This drove fine around town lol.
It will work if you do not have HBMC. IIRC, HBMC is not an option for Armadas, only Infiniti's so you should be good to go.
On another note, PRG sells 2" coil spacers for the rear. They also sell Nissan Titan UCA's which fit the Armada as well.
Give Greg at PRG Products a call...
