Outback Armour Suspension for Nissan Pathfinder R51 2005–2012 V6 Diesel
Upgrade your Nissan Pathfinder R51 2005–2012 V6 Diesel with an Australian-engineered Outback Armour suspension kit that confidently handles corrugations, mining roads and remote touring while still driving comfortably on the highway. Outback Armour builds these kits around heavy-duty twin-tube shocks, matched springs and quality hardware to deliver improved control, comfort and load carrying for real-world 4×4 use.
Why choose Outback Armour?
Australian engineers design and develop these systems for demanding off-road conditions
Large-body shocks and high-flow pistons deliver consistent damping under load
Matched coil springs suit specific vehicle loads and accessories
Multiple options cover unladen daily drivers through to heavy touring Pathfinders
Shock Options: Performance
Performance Range
The Performance range uses robust 60Â mm twin-tube shocks with high-flow internals to deliver a well-balanced ride on and off road. This setup suits Nissan Pathfinder R51 owners who want improved control, stability and comfort for daily driving, touring, towing and regular gravel-road use, without the complexity of adjustable systems.
Spring & Load Options: Trail, Expedition & Expedition HD
Outback Armour builds each kit around matched springs and shocks to suit how you actually use your Pathfinder R51. For the rear in particular, you can choose from:
Trail – Unladen / Light Load
Trail kits suit unladen or lightly loaded vehicles. This option works well for Pathfinder R51s used mainly as daily drivers or weekend tourers with occasional camping gear. You’ll gain improved ride quality, stability and lift height without the need to carry a constant heavy load.
Expedition – Moderate Constant Load
Expedition kits suit vehicles that carry a moderate constant load, such as rear drawers, fridge setups, roof racks or regular touring gear. These springs add support and control over standard suspension while maintaining good ride comfort.
Expedition HD – Heavy Constant Load
Expedition HD kits suit Pathfinders with heavy, permanent loads including drawer systems, long-range fuel tanks, rear bars, spare carriers or work equipment. The higher-rate springs maintain correct ride height, improve stability and reduce bottoming out when fully loaded.
