Hi,
I have a 2001 King Cab, 4 cylinder, rear wheel drive, 154K miles. In recent years I've noticed the ride seems rough. Specifically on things like small potholes, which in another car might give a softer "thump", in my truck it hits hard and really rattles the truck. Seems like something is wrong in the suspension. I replaced all 4 shocks - not much difference. I've also replaced the sway/stabilizer bars in the front (mechanic recommended for another reason). Whatever it is it seems like it's more in the front.
I may take it to Nissan dealer this week, but it will be $120 or so just to diagnose things, so wondering if anyone has suggestions on other parts to look into.
One thing I did was measure the height of my truck. It was about 61'', whereas the spec I saw said height was 63''. I wonder if something has settled too much over the years, or if that's normal.
