1upusa bike rack installed… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep, I get the temptation / psychology of seeing the better version out there and defaulting to “needing to upgrade”. I’ve had some thoughts/feelings/fleeting desires to do it. But the reality is that my use case won’t likely exceed the limits of the NA spec components. Once I get the...

Ready to get this suspension sorted! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So far the backup camera peeks around/through well enough that I don’t feel the need. Maybe if/when I add the table and side hack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Photos with the spare installed… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. Agree. The hitch will rarely be on there, so not super worried about that one. But the cool thing about that hitch insert is that the ball can rotate forward when not it use. Makes it so much easier to avoid bumping when working in the cargo area. I am moving the spare up top as soon...

Fitted the Rigd Untraswing Mega-Fit today. Looks great. Excellent quality and attention to detail. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, curb weight. I am honestly jumping to some conclusions/grasping at straws based my experience with the Ironman and others that have tried the OMEs of similar specs. I am getting closer to 5” of lift. Not sure what else is different. Good news is the revelation that the standard height...

Update on the plan… Ordered front and rear Lovells at the Australian spec standard height. We’ve all come to the conclusion that the US version of this truck is substantially lighter and one inch lower. So these “stock” springs should get me to a 2” lift vs the 5” I’m running now. Sent from...

@SRN Heads up - these are back in stock and look like the best option for the camber. https://patrolapart.com.au/product/ontrack-4x4-rear-camber-correction-bush-kit-for-nissan-patrol-y62

Any tips on where to order the Lovells here in the USA? I couldn't find the detailed specs on those either. Do you happen to know the length and spring rate? Thanks!

@leeleatherwood and others here - I would absolutely love it if you guys could do a sanity check on my research and calculations... Problem: I don't plan on adding weight to the truck anytime soon, so the lift is currently higher than 3" with ironman 4x4 and causing alignment and ride problems...

Super awesome to see another Armada here! Congrats on the purchase. I ran a side business called e61 overland for a couple years advising folks on vehicle choices and designing complete vehicles from mild to full on expedition capable. Here’s a really long post that essentially attempts to talk...

It’s adjusted all the way down and has over a thousand miles on it. The only explanation I’ve heard is that Patrols sit roughly an inch higher than Armadas from the factory. So for us it’s actually a 2.5 to 3” lift. It would likely be cloister to 2” if I had a bumper, winch, drawers, etc. So...

Looks great with the KTM on the back… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Armada/QX/Patrol friends! Some of you may or may not know I was one of the top goose gear dealers for a brief time as a side business called e61overland. I always recommended Goose Gear plates and drawers as the preferred first choice over ARB, Frontrunner, Dobinsons, etc... for several...

Also of note, I’m experiencing the dreaded Titan sway-bar flip now that I’m getting full droop with the new UCAs and longer travel shocks. Tried to reinstall with the end links extended further with no luck. Flipped when pulling into my driveway and bent the links. Anyone else with an armada...

…and the UCAs made a massive difference over stock arms. The stock were really restricting down travel and also putting the steering knuckle joint under a lot of pressure. PSA - Anyone reading this and researching lift options, go with aftermarket UCAs from the start. I can’t believe Ironman can...
