For those of you that have this suspension mod for their 5th gen or plan to do this mod here is a problem that I've run into.

Upon doing the install you have to be very aware of the brake line rubbing against the bolts from the RASB. Make sure the longer bolts are on the BOTTOM and NOT the TOP.

When I had Nissan Tech install this for me, because I had no access to a lift, he put the longer bolt on top.

What happened was the bolt rubbed into the brake line causing a hole in the brake line and causing me to buy a new hose and having to bleed the brakes.

Bought brake fluid (DOT 3) refilled the fluid and drove up/down a few streets several times and then parked. Come to find out the rear driver side brake hose was leaking. (pretty evident)

I can get the part number later. "Bennett auto supply" gave me the wrong rubber brake hose part number. Go figure

Anyhow if you do this mod make sure the longer bolt is on the bottom or you zip tie the brake line to something higher up so the line stays away from rubbing into the bolts from the RASB.

I'm also lowered and still on stock shocks - 18'' wheels. I just advise to the above statement and you'll be fine with this mod.

For the post below in reply to a33i30

RASB --> Rear Anti Sway Bar

Not Rear Strut Bar --> thats in your truck. RASB is underneath the bottom of the axle I believe, or near the axle. Thus bearing near the brake hose line(s).

 

RSB?

 

Cliffs? your post is very confusing

 

got pics? i think the install went very wrong

 

Just make sure on each side installing the RASB that the longer bolt is the bottom one (closer to the ground) When driving, springs shocks go up and down and the bolt, if it's the longer one, on the top will rub a hole in the brake line. Either zip tie the brake hose higher or make sure to put the longer bolts on each side on the bottom.

 

And a Nissan tech installed this? Great!!
