2004 Nissan Xtrail Suspension

[Eddie-Xtrail]

Hello, I own a 2004 Nissan Xtrail, and I have been thinking of upgrading my suspension so that its slightly more comfortable on road as well as handle a light off-roading. But it's very difficult to find options for my car. I have seen a handful of people that have upgraded and lifted their Xtrails, unfortunately, I wasn't able to have a chat with them. 
I have a few more things I would like to do such as - offroad side lights, all-terrain tyres.

Can anyone suggest me a place in dubai/sharjah to get a suspension upgrade? Appreciate the help!

Hi @Eddie-Xtrail you will indeed be a bit limited with options. I would approach it like this:

1. Get new shocks, even if they are OEM. You will find already an improvement as perhaps the ones you have now are maybe old and worn out. Look into KYB or Gabriel shocks. (Gabriel G52001 should fit). KYB has a local distribution here in Dubai. 

KYB has this range:

- Excel G = OEM direct replacement

- Gas A Just = Bit more offroad capable

- Monomax - For offroad and heavy towing

 

2. Small lift can be obtained with different springs. King Springs are an option:
NISSAN X-TRAIL T30 2001 - 9/2007 - Fit your Vehicle - King Springs Automotive Aftermarket Springs

 

I would recommend buying from Kings, KYB, or Gabriel directly and bringing the items to your local mechanic or BMW road in Sharjah. It will take only 1.5-2hrs to get the shocks and springs installed for around 200dhs. 

 

If you look into custom shocks, Profender is an option. They can make shocks for rare vehicles. We don't advertise businesses here to remain unbiased, but you can just google Profender Ajman and go through the list. There is a shop in Ajman that can customize Profender shocks for your needs. This would however be more costly than the option above with the OEM shocks.

Hi there! For your 2004 Nissan Xtrail, upgrading the suspension is a great idea for better comfort and light off-roading. Some reliable suspension brands to consider include:

• Dobinsons: Known for durability and excellent performance on and off-road.
• Ironman 4x4: Offers suspension kits tailored for comfort and mild off-roading.
• Old Man Emu (OME): Premium kits designed for enhanced ride quality and stability.
• KYB (OEM replacement): A good option if you want an OEM-like ride with slight improvements.

Good luck with your upgrades!
