I was about to ask this same questions. I'm currently stock 4x4 nismo and would like the same input on this. I want more up/down wheel travel, i hate how tight this thing feels on the whoops, shakes me and the passengers around a lot at lower speeds on the whoopy roads unlike my rodeo, on the rodeo I just cranked the torsion bars so it sits 3" higher in front and installed longer shocks, WOW, BIG difference, feels incredddible vs. stock height&shocks, sometimes wish this frontier sat on torsions, cheap, easy, very beneficial, reliable mod.

... the ones with the most travel

Why does everything go back to your rodeo? Didn't we go thru this before.....

Now for the OP, I would try your 2.5" Icons first and see if they work. You may have to crank them a little or add a small spacer but they should work. Now if this doesn't work, then I would figure out the full compressed and full extended length and order a CO that meets those specs. I am sure PRG will have an answer if you can get ahold of him.

They will work just fine. Had OE Bilstiens up front with my Titan Swap before "upgraded" to the AC's. If you do upgrade I will be interested in your ICONS

cant you just get your icons re-valved correctly for a titan swap.

Im going to bring this thread back from the dead. Does anyone know the best solution to the original question? Ive been searching for the answer and I see people are running them fully cranked up or with a spacer. I have the 2.5s with the extended travel and I want to do the titan swap. I also don't want to get new coilovers yet. so does anyone know which combo will yield the most travel and best ride? thanks

They will probably work fine.The only way to know for sure is to cycle the suspension.Measure the distance from the upper shock mount to the LCA mount at full bump and droop.You need to know the collasped length and extended length of the shocks to determine if there will be any problems if any.
As far as "which combo will yield the most travel and best ride?"Depends on what you are after and how far do you want to go.
