Installed 30 mm coil spacers to replace my factory crown rings that were completely worn out. The spacers added another .75” lift to the vehicle. I will have to see how the rig performs with these spacers before moving to longer shocks or a smaller spacer.

She's raised a bit higher in the back on this side because I'm lighter in the butt and have no spare on. Should level out better with the RTT on.

On this side I'm good.

How did you discover your crown rings were shot? Where were you able to buy spacers ? Wanted to replace mine for a long time.

I noticed a sag on the driver side of the Patrol and pulled the coil springs out. I'm glad I did because I found out the longer coils were on the wrong side of the vehicle. So I switched the longer coils to the passenger side and achieved the desired result of correcting the sag. Well, when I pulled the coils out I discovered that the crown rings were completely destroyed. That's when I decided to go ahead and replace them with coil spacers. I purchased Dobinsons spacers that were available on Amazon. I was actually surprised to see they also have drop boxes, drag links and control arms on there, to name a few of the Patrol spare parts available.

If you go to Amazon just search Nissan Patrol Y60 and you'll find a bunch of spare parts.

Thanks FJ. Been wanting a set of spacers for a while now. Definitely going to source Amazon for parts.

Thanks. I'll be heading back into the Mayan jungle next week so this will be put to immediate use.

Dang it's beautiful out there. Are you going to the Texas Overland Spring Roundup?

We are still talking about attending the Spring Round Up. We have some competing interests for that time frame.

Which tow hooks are you running up front?

Those are stock Nissan units. It came with one on the passenger's side, and I got the driver's side from a place in the UK. Cleaned them up with a wire wheel and painted them red for fun.
