OME + Spacer Question

[InfinQX4]

Trying to figure out what will actually happen in terms of lift efect if I add a 35mm spacer to the medium front coils from OME.

Direct from OME, they advertise 1/2" above stock. However everyone seems to indicate far more than 1/2". Can't help but wondering of this is due to old springs that have sagged, and the new springs take it back to stock + 1/2". If the old springs have sagged over the years and are beat up pretty good, they could already be over 1/2" lower than stock.

Any ideas here?

35MM = 1.37"

So, estimate 1.37" + .5" = 1.87" above stock.

I know my springs are sagging as the car sits crooked left to right, and the CVs basically have no angle when sitting parked. 115K miles will do that.

its more than a 1/2" lift. but i hear its a great spring, a little less lift than 4x4parts.com but supposedly rides smoother. Great compromise. personally i wouldnt go more than an inch of spacer cause that will put you in danger of breaking CV axles at full droop.

one thing i dont like about OME kit is that the rear sticks up higher than the front, A spacer would only even it out perfectly. Theres a guy in Panama who did OME coils and 3/4" spacer and it came out great:

In fact, i really envy this guys pathfinder. Great options. its got leather with a 5 speed manual, the 4.636 gears, and the South American air-bag blocker tray in the dashboard which i want so bad! more photos http://s265.photobucket.com/al...hotos/

That is a great ride! I want that rear bumper setup for the spare. Was that a custom job?

Do you know if the OME struts are longer than stock? I've heard they are, but also heard guys running KYBs wit the OME springs without issue. That was my original plan until I heard the OME struts were longer to offset the spring height. That would be great but means more $$$.

Thanks for the info. I'd say in the next few weeks I'll have something matched up and post pictures.
