I have a 07 offroad with shackles and spacer for the front I am running 285/75/16's. I went to the nissan place the other day in Anchorage and they had a 08 for sale and it sat taller than mine exspecially in the back. I was wondering if I could run add a leaf with the shackles or would I have to get a body lift. So I am wanting to know how can I get some more lift out of my xterra.

Yeah, there are plenty of lifts for the 2nd generation X. As far as body lift, I think that you can go 3" and that's from AC

I think I am going to do the calmini add a leaf. That and the shackles will give me 3inches

what are you going to use in the front to even it out?????

I have the calmini 2 1/2 inch spacers up front

This is very close to my first lift on my 05 OR

I went with Day Star 2" Spacers and 2" Shackles

From the pic in your Avitar it looks like the shackles are not the right length. What shackles are those?

By going with the AALs you will get 2" or so of lift and stiff'n up the rear end a little. On trips with the back loaded you won't notice the rear sag so much with the AALs

The xterra is sitting on a incline thats why the rear looks lower than it really is
