The Alldogs Offroad Co-Op 2" lift with Koni shocks is now installed on my Nissan Frontier. In this video I'll show you the installation (performed by an experienced 4x4 mechanic), talk about some details of this kit, show you some before-after shots, take it out for some testing, and give you my impressions. See the chapter links in the video player or listed below at the bottom of the description if you would like to skip ahead to whatever interests you.
Alldogs Offroad Co-op provided this kit for me to test and review, however I have not been paid to make this video, nor am I under any obligation to say anything specific or positive about this product. Everything here is my own words and thoughts.

I have a Navara 2.5 diesel 4x4. I had a 2" lift fitted and with 285 - 75 - 16" tyres it's very capable. I live in South Africa where we have a lot of rough trails. It's by no means a rock crawler, but very capable as a overland truck.

Great review! I got and put on the ADO kit on my R51/2010 Pathfinder recently, however at the time I chose the Bilstein kit, as my drives are mostly paved/asphalt roads, highway use; about a 95/5 split with any backcountry type driving. However, after your review, I suspect maybe the Koni kit would have been a more versatile choice, seeing as your encounter with the Koni kit on paved highways to still be better than the stock suspension. Wishing you fun through your adventures! Cheers!
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest 2 года назад
On good highways there’s not a noticeable improvement over the Bilsteins, it’s only on rough paved roads (and speed bumps in town) where I feel a difference…my Frontier was very well-mannered on the highway with its original suspension. And from what I’ve gathered, even the Bilstein 5100s are also an improvement over the Bilstein 4600s that come from the factory on the Frontier Pro4x. With 95% pavement driving it sounds like your kit is a good match to your needs.

Even saw a new class action involving the 20-21's. I considered trading in my 19 but I had some pause about the new drive train. Plus the seats are lower and they took out the tilt and 8 way power on driver side. I felt its not as comfortable as my 19. They also took out power seat on passenger which was surprising. Allot of reported glitches on the new head unit with freezing screens and issues with car play/android auto etc.. Also they completely knackered the cruise control. I don't see it as reliable as the old old one that it replaced.

I was thinking the same thing. In fact, I was looking at that kit for my Fronty and they offer a u-bolt flip kit for $80. By itself, it's usually $100. I think if I do this kit I'll opt for flipping the ubolts and probably even upgrading to the ADO UCA's for future flexibility. But we'll see what the wallet says when it's time to make the buy. Probably next year or so.

The other way to look at this is the lower bed makes it easier to load things. I will put about 20 bags of pellets in the bed about 5 times a year. You raise that bed 2 inches and that makes that job allot more difficult. The lift is mainly to increase your approach/departure angle. The little bit of clearance increase is mainly from the larger tire. In short, most do the lifts for looks more then anything else. This poster actually is in that small percentage group that benefits from the newer mods. Most will stay on tar sealed roads and like he says, the bilsteins 4600 provide an almost identical ride.

@gs98999
@gs98999 2 года назад
With a lift like this the ground clearance doesn't change. The approach/departure angles get better but the diff is still at the same height from the ground. Going from 31" to 33" tires will increase ground clearance by 1". Regardless, body sits higher and that will help most obstacles in the field.

Next time you are near Grants Pass stop at Wheelers Off Road, they may have some off road bump stops that would fit. They can really improve the ride of the truck. Maybe do a U-bolt flip while you're at it. I think the 2" lift with 33's is the sweet spot.

HEY!! Like that xou keep overlanding simple. Truly. CONCERNS. The leaf spring U bolts need to be cut down to about a 1/4" from the nut. They are vulnerable to getting bent by obstacles and besides messing up ground clearance they may be un-removable if bent. Also, unless I missed it, I didn't see anything about alignment. It's an absolute must. Always enjoy your videos and commentary.

Re ubolts, Put an extra nut on the thread and then cut the surplus off, As over time you will hit the exposed thread, or it will be full of rust / dirt when next you need to remove. If you can get a longer than normal nut even better still> I run double nuts on all teh exposed bolt ends on my Samaurai, saves a lot of work.. Cheers and keep at it...

Nice review, very comprehensive. Truck looks great and I am sure performs much better. Few questions for you: Will the parabolic springs carry a constant load better than a larger leaf pack? The U bolts seem to protrude quite far, do you anticipate them possibly getting hung up? (U bolt flip kit?) What is the story with the skid plate up front? ADO is one of the few who cater to our Frontier, kudos to them. Looking forward to seeing your new suspension perform in future episodes. Keep up the great work.
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest 2 года назад
In my initial conversations with ADO, when they found out that I keep my camp build in place full time (vs unloading, driving around town empty etc) they felt the parabolic was better suited than doing an add-a-leaf. If I understand correctly, the parabolic needs a pretty good load on it and may not be the right choice for someone who uses their truck more traditionally, eg empty most of the time but occasional heavy loads. The ASFIR front skid plate is designed to bolt up to and support the stock front bumper - which obviously I don’t have. Since shooting this video, I have modified the mounting bracket and the plate itself to better fit my configuration. Looks much better now, and you’ll see it soon on IG and upcoming videos. 👍🏻 Edit: oh, the u-bolts. Yeah, I’ll ask about that. They do stick out quite a ways. Maybe I can cut them off.

Yes, didn’t occur to me to mention the alignment because that’s just a given. My alignment shop was able to dial it right in very easily (they could never get the Forester 100% dialed in). I miss how nimble the Forester was on narrow trails and being able to turn around virtually anywhere at anytime, but that’s about it. I took a small hit to MPG moving to the pickup but the Forester already wasn’t getting fabulous mileage with its mods, so it wasn’t a huge difference. What I’ve gained has proven well worth it. I loved that Forester but for overland trips, I am much much happier in the Frontier. 🙂

Did your tech make any tweaks to the camber of the front wheels? I noticed with my 2 inch lift (on an Xterra of the same generation) that I began to see my traction control system getting mad more easily in the corners and I chalked it up to the camber being off with the lift tilting the suspension down further... That or the 33" tires I added, definitely one or the other. Curious if you encounter something similar especially once you get those tires you mentioned.

The gas mileage hit usually comes from the increase in tire size. Once you put on the 33’s you will see a drop in mpg’s.

Absolutely! Of course if he sticks with a tall skinny it might not be too bad. I had some 305/70/R16 Falken Wild Peak AT3s on my Fronty and man it ate the gas. The mileage went from 17 to 19mpgs on a 265/75 down to 12 to 14🤪 of course my truck also has 368,000 miles on it so it's a little long in the tooth lol. I actually pulled the 305s off and put a mild 285/75 Hancook AT tire on because I drive so much for work and the mileage crept back up to 15 to 17mpgs.

Im interested in the konis...can you tell me which coils you went with? Medium(+100) OR HEAVY (+150) ? And how much lift in the front from the coils you selected along with the konis? Did they settle at all? Did they ever give you any issue such as coul binding?

@softroadingthewest 2 года назад
I have the medium coils as I'm running a relatively lightweight front end with only a minimal, lightweight steel bumper.A buddy with a much heftier, traditional steel bumper on his Frontier opted for their heavy coils. It's about 2" of lift, no perceivable settling, no coil binding issue so far.

Congrats on the lift! Have you noticed if your CV boot ribs touch with the increased angle?
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest 2 года назад
Not even close when sitting flat. I’ll have to look again when it’s flexed out…I’ll try to remember to look at that when the opportunity presents.

@@softroadingthewest Nice. I know it's an issue even with mild lifts on toyota's, but it's mitigated by sliding out the boot slightly and reclamping. Looking fwd to more build updates.

Also … What bumper(s) are you running, and are those inset lights in the rear?
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest 2 года назад
Front bumper is my own DIY fab job (still has some work to go). It’s just the stock bumper on the rear. The previous owner installed those lights, wired to the backup lights. They’re teeny tiny little things but illuminate impressively well. Made by Rigid.

Curious with the constant load you have what the comparison is between the parabolic leafs and a heavy duty leaf pack. Watched the great interview video with ADO, but wondering if that was a component of your discussion as well? Does this support the weight as well or will you expect sagging with a fully loaded bed?
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest 2 года назад
On the contrary, when Alldogs found out I carry a contant load, they felt the parabolic was the optimal approach.

the parabolic would probably take 800 or so pounds to really sag. i had 600 lbs in the back of my truck with the prototypes on and it dropped the rear 1/4". we took a little rate and lift out of the production ones but when we threw 500 lbs in the back of mine with the production ones on, it didn't drop it much. the more weight you throw at them, the better they ride

Donald, I did a 2.5" lift on my Explorer and am also satisfied with it. Ready for 33s as well. The truck looks great. Enjoy!

Im about to do this lift only i did the add a leaf and high clearance ucas.and added the spacer. What tire size and rim are you running?
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest Год назад
In this video, the truck has the stock rims (16") and stock Pro-4x tire size (265/75R16...~31"). If you look at more recent videos, you will see that I'm now running larger tires (285/75/R16...~33") on AllDogs Offroad's 16" Frontier/Xterra rims.

@softroadingthewest what do you think about the (3" Radflo Nisstec Extended Travel Kit (05+ Frontier) kit?
@softroadingthewest
@softroadingthewest Год назад
I don't really have an opinion, I'm not familiar with it and have no personal experience with it. The Nissan Frontier forum (clubfrontier.org) might be a good place to ask around, might find someone who has it and can provide feedback. Good luck!
