Shocks and Door Seals

Really old stuff that got saved. Here are the old Nissan Patrol Club America messages from the 'General' category. Warning, it's dusty in here!

Mike,Talk to any of the shock dealers.  All that most of them need is the length of your existing shock fully extended (end of body to other end of body, don't include the mounting bolt) and then fully collapse the shock and make the same measurement again.  To be on the safe side measure one front shock and one rear shock,  they may be different. Then they need to know how the shocks mount.  Studs, eyes etc.                                      good luck,  gary

I found a soft foam rubber molding that worked really well when replacing the weather striping for front and back doors (but not for at the bottom of the doors though, just sides and tops, the bottoms need something wide).  If you want the part number and phone number for the place e-mail me.  Alex.
