Ive been looking for one all over. i just got a 3" body lift done and you can really notice the nose dive of the front. i just put 33" tires on as well so depending on the angle of a slant i may be driving on i occasionally run against the body. I see firestone make a universal air leveling kit for 2001-2011. ive just been looking everywhere for some kind of verification that this kit works well with a nissan frontier 02. Can anyone help me?

I have a 03 and would like to do the same thing but most leveling kits are just spacer for the springs in the front. With the torsion bar set up that doesn't work. The only thing I have really found is to replace the torsion bars or adjust them so that front sits higher. As far as the Firestone air kit I don't have any idea.

I've heard there are stiffer T-bars for 1998 - 2004 Frontiers. You might check out the link:

Calmini makes HD T-bars to link below:

I just adjust my T-bars today it was pretty easy I sprayed the adjustment bolts with some PB Blaster before I started. I went form 33 in. to 33-1/2 in. I think I mite bring it up some more but not sure just yet. It does need an alignment but it need that before I made the adjust. I don't have a lift on my truck but I have 30 9.50s on it and they look a bit small so I think I mite go with some 31s.

Thanks for the info. I am almost exactly 2" low on the front.

I have read that trying to get 2" with the torsion bars is about max. I also have 30X9.50's. They were brand new when I bought my frontier a month ago. I might try the torsion bar lift.

The 30s I have on my or in okay shape but with the t-bars just a half and in. it seems like I could put 31s on it.

I read an article about using Bilstiens that have a spring assist for the front that gives 2 to 2.5 inches. But I sure can't find them.
