I have for sale, 3 inch lift blocks complete with bolts to suit your mates pathy if he is interested.

Mine is lifted 3 inches on the body and about 4 or 5 inches in the suspension area.
I also have a MQ live axle up front and a commodore V6 powering it.

The best I could get under mine without scubbing are 33 inch tyres. Looks like I will have to do some more lifting.

Good to see another fine looking Pathy. How well does your front end hold up when you go 4wding?

I too would like to see some more pics.

Hey,

Can I get 33" tyres on a 89 Pathy with 2" BL and 2" Suspenion. I think only 32" will fit and judging from above I need the extra 2" in either BL or SL to get the 33" on !

One more inch on the body and suspension should see you clear.

Thanks, But as I have the 2" BL already I might just go the 32" for the time being !

Can always change it later !

Did you have to do anything to the steering shaft. I have an 87 navara and a mate has an 89 pathy and we are going to attempt body lifts on both soon. Just dont want any suprises.

If your navara is a 4x4 then it has a 2" lift standard. The steering shaft on the 4x4 Navara is longer than the Pathfinder and some people actually change it when they BL their pathies. I did a 3" lift and kept the Pathy shaft with no problems.
