Just for curiousity, I looked and couldn't find anything either. Best bet is to call a local shop that does suspension or give Xzibit @ Pimp My Ride a call.

You can loosen up the torsion bars, get it realigned if possible, and get different coil springs for the rear. I'd say you could safely drop it about 2" and not have too many problems.

Coil Spring Specialties in California does custom coil springs. Otherwise, modify some stock ones or some from a different vehicle, like a Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Maybe.....i dont know much about the pathfinders yet i just got one. i have heard about the torsion bars by a tech at my work. dont know i get the whole setup with the airbags. they said to loosen up top i just read it. but the tech at my work said remove the rear torsion bars for a 2" drop. maybe hes full of shit. im not too familiar with rear wheel drive suv's yet. or maybe its because mine is just RWD.

There's no such thing as "rear torsion bars" on a Nissan. They're only in the front.

Perhaps you have the wrong vehicle. You can always trade it in on a station wagon.
