Description
Nissan Pathfinder R51 Pedders 1.5-Inch Raised Front Suspension Struts
Upgrade your vehicle with these Nissan Pathfinder R51 front struts from Pedders. Designed as a raised-height suspension solution, they provide an approximate 1.5-inch increase in front ride height while helping improve suspension control, ride quality and overall vehicle stability.
The complete front strut assemblies combine Pedders foam-cell shock absorber technology with carefully matched raised coil springs. This creates a balanced suspension upgrade for Pathfinder owners who use their vehicle for everyday driving, towing, touring or off-road adventures.
1.5-Inch Front Height Increase
These Pedders raised front struts are designed to increase the front ride height of the Nissan Pathfinder R51 by approximately 1.5 inches.
The additional height can help improve ground clearance and create a more purposeful stance. It is particularly useful for vehicles driven on rough roads, uneven tracks, campsites and off-road terrain.
The final measured height increase may vary slightly depending on the vehicle’s existing suspension condition, engine, fitted accessories and overall front axle weight.
Improved Ride Height and Control
Standard suspension components can become tired after years of use. This may cause reduced ride height, excessive body movement, poor handling or an unsettled ride over rough surfaces.
The Pedders raised front suspension assemblies are designed to restore suspension control while increasing the vehicle’s front ride height by approximately 1.5 inches.
The result is a Pathfinder that feels more stable, controlled and confident across everyday roads, motorways and challenging terrain.
Pedders Foam-Cell Technology
Pedders foam-cell struts use a large internal bore and piston design with increased oil capacity. This helps the shock absorber manage heat and maintain consistent damping during demanding use.
The foam-cell construction helps reduce the mixing of air and oil inside the strut. This can reduce shock fade and provide more consistent suspension control across rough roads, long journeys and off-road terrain.
