PRG leveling Kit rocks!

22BUKS · 10-23-2006, 10:32 PM

I installed it this Friday and it looks awesome! Pretty simple install too! I took it to Nissan the next day for an alignment, rotate and balance, and had the full brake service done from the recall. They also fixed a switch for the 4x4 control, and ordered a driver-side leather seat cover since mine was starting to peel by the power seat buttons. It looks and rides awesome! As many have said, the PRG leveling kit is an excellent product!

I also added some Wade in-channel vent visors this week. Quick install, quality product, works great!

Next up....painting the step rails black (this week), billet grill, and maybe a shorter antenna? It never ends!!!!!

Anyway, enjoy the semi-quality pics and let me know what you think!

Looks good! Keep us updated on your future mods. I wanna see how your step rails turn out.

Looks real nice .... how much did you paid for the Wade In-channel vent visors ?

theres a recall out on the brakes for the 04 titans?

I had to slam on my breaks the other day due to an ignorant orlandian, brakes went to the floor....definitly not as firm as my Tacoma's were.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I still give her a second glance walking away amazed on how different it looks! Installing this kit just gives me more fuel to start checking out some bigger wheels to fill up some of that extra wheel well space I now have. I think I have a sickness!

I have the step rails removed, the plastic pieces removed, and sanded them down. I hope to have time to finish them up tomorrow. I'm on vacation this week, so no big hurry. I will post some pics once I'm done.

I got them for $65 shipped from here: http://deflectors4less.com/niinwide.html I got them about a week and a half after ordering them and received the shipment notice the day they arrived.

Excellent price and product though! Very pleased!

Nice avatar! Oh yeah, truck looks great too, but NICE AVATAR!

That leveling kit makes quite a difference. I'm hoping Santa comes through for me!

Thanks Blackbeauty, I like yours too!

The step rails are complete and I think they turned out pretty nice! I ended using Dupli-Color Truck Bed Liner paint. The plastic pieces were a b!tch to remove, but well worth it. I also painted the mounts, but used regular black glossy paint on them.

The last two pictures show how the plastic pieces are attached to the step rail. To remove them, you need to use a flathead or something similar to lift it up and pry under the prongs holding the step piece to the rail. The key to not damage the sides of the plastic while lifting it up is to keep your screwdriver parallel and in the middle of the plastic piece as you work your way down. This alloys you to wedge against it in the middle against the rail and not use the sides. Hope that made sense! Notice the white screw at the end. There is one at each end and you will need to remove it first before proceeding to the black prongs on the end in which you start with. You will need to use a bit of force to pop them out, but use caution, they break rather easily (I broke a total of 6 from all 4 pieces).

Enjoy the pics and any feedback is appreciated!

Funny you mentioned about the brakes on your truck. Last year, I was at a stop light, and was looking down, and all of a sudden, I felt a bump. I noticed my truck hit the car in front of me but before I hit him, I was about 2 cars length behind him. As I noticed I hit him, I noticed my foot ALL THE WAY to the floor. Just so happens this was about less than a year since I got the brakes redone, but not with the brakes that are SUPPOSE to be on there. So I told Nissan, and they said what if it was my fault. I said it's impossible. Plus, at the stop light, it was on a downhill which requires more pressure to the brake pedal. So as the tow truck driver drove it on the flatbed, he too said the brake pedal went to the floor, and I told him what Nissan did when fixing my brakes earlier that year. Well, after investigating the truck, Nissan said it wasn't their fault. Of course when they tested it, they said it never went to the floor. Probabaly they didn't test it on a hill. So I asked the tow truck driver to get me a written statement, he said he would but never did. Anyways, the guy I hit, his number didn't exists and never heard from him so I just kind of kicked it out of the way. Goes to show since I KNOW and the tow truck driver KNOWS the pedal went to the floor, it must of happend when the dealer changed my brakes the first time and didn't do a great job. Makes me wonder what other stuff they have messed up on other people's cars. Scary
