Hi all, does anyone know where to order and what is the part number for 2001 QX4 rear springs.
RockAuto doesn't have it.
I was told Land Rover Defender has same springs but not sure what year and model.
Thank you.

Land rover defender springs will fit, but are not the same. They are 2 inch lift springs. Yet get any 99-2004 pathfinder springs and it’s the same thing

Re: QX4 2001 rear springs
Infinity and Nissan share many identical part numbers. For your '01 QX4 and my '02 Pathfinder, the OEM part number for the rear springs is 55020-1W201. I purchased ACDelco springs for my ride and they worked out great. https://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-45H2158- ... 007QBY0GQ/
RockAuto has them as well. If your springs are shot your upper and lower insulators are likely worn out as well. The lower insulators are just thin wall sleeves that fit onto the lower spring coil and they get abused the most over time. OEM number 54034-2J010 is the only option for those lower insulators I could find. OEM number 55034-0W005 for the uppers I found available as aftermarket but I went with OEM instead because of fitment issues with a lower cost alternative I first purchased. As for the springs, there are lower cost alternatives to ACDelco but I have seen their brand generally higher in quality and reliability than others so for me it was worth paying a bit more to be confident I would have no more issues with this for years to come.

You can get some old man emu’s for it. That’s what I did. Upgrade the coils and shocks if you are looking for lift or more performance.

Can you please tell me what year Defender front springs will fit 2001 QX4 and what model Defender 90 or 110?heavy hitter wrote: ↑Wed May 13, 2020 8:19 pmLand rover defender springs will fit, but are not the same.

I am thinking that ppl still complain about saggy rear after installing the new springs so 2" higher springs should be good.
Do i need anything else to complete the job?
Thank you.

You can also search for springs that fit the pathfinder and you will find more results. The old man emu coils are for a pathfinder which is the qx4. I got about a .5”-1” lift from the new coils.
