Ok so since my truck is out of commission with a (I think) faulty fuel pump, I want to go ahead and put a lift kit on it while it's down. I saw a listing for a fabtech 3" lift in a local 4x4 parts shop's catalog. Has anyone out there used the fabtech kit? If you have any pictures, I would like to check 'em out. I already have 31x10.5 bf goodrich all terrain tires on it, which by themselves gave it a nice, aggressive look. I had to notch my mudflaps in the front to keep it from rubbing during turns, but the tires look nice. I can't seem to find any pictures on the web that have lifted frontiers. Anyone got any sites to recommend? I also have to say that I am glad to have stumbled onto this site. Lots of great information here.
Well, I am TRYING to post pics of my truck under the 'MY TRUCK' post. I have a 3' body lift (really does not look that bad) 3 inch block lift in the rear and I cranked up the torsions 2 inches in the front. I'm running 33 12.5 15's. I forgot who my block and body kit suppliers are. You could proably do a 2 or 3 inch block lift in the rear and crank the torsions up about 2 inches all in the span of a few hours. The Body lift was a bit more time consuming, but since they don't sell decent suspension kits for the 94, I'm kinda limited. I hope this helps.

Somewhere along the way they usually end up twice as fast.
If you are thinking of a body lift, when you lift the bed up to slide the blocks in, that is the PERFECT time to get to that fuel pump.
Just a tip. If you buy anything for your truck that is going on the outside of your truck - anywhere - paint it. Do at least 2 or 3 coats. It will prevent it from rusting. I learned the hard way. Trust me.
By the way, welcome to the forum.

How are you going to be wheelin you're truck? I'm not a fan of bodylifts because of the gap and I've seen them break on the trail... not pretty. They're just for show if you ask me. If you want to do a suspension lift, I would recommend http://www.calmini.com
or http://www.4x4parts.com/public_html/shop/
Have any of you guys done torsion bar turning on your Frontiers? I turned mine down on my hardbody 2wd, and had to shim it in order to get it to align. I have a set of 3" blocks I could put on the rear, so I would want to get about a 2" to 3" lift by twisting the torsions. Has anyone tried this on a Frontier, and more importantly, were you able to get it aligned when you did? I don't want to trash my tires, cuz this is my daily driver.
If you're gonna crank it that much, you need to get longer upper contral arms from Calmini or AC. Without that you can only go an inch or so and still get it aligned.

I guess since I have a hardbody I don't visit there as much as I should.
