I hear that with the Titans you can have your 4x4 and bagged at the same time. Can you do this with the frontiers also?

I am looking to get a new truck soon but this could be one of those things that might make the choice.

ive never seen one. the problem you run into is the front drive shaft runs right where the bag would normally go. so you would have to use an alternate bag placement. other than that, i think everything else would work fine.

May I ask why you would bag a 4x4?

But people drive Camaros and Mustangs in Canada, along with all other types of 2wd...

If I were to do it, I would get the 4x4 knuckles dropped by Biokustomz and use a air strut in place of the factory coil/strut assembly. This would allow room for the axles. Don't count on get much travel with the cv joints on the front axle. The air struts would be limited in travel anyways. The only place building air struts for the frontier is Chassistech AIM airbagit.com. I actually tried this route and the sent me some shit that wouldn't fit and did not have the compression they said it would. That company is a joke. I was out alot of money after fighting with them for awhile. So I dont know where you should go to get air struts made. Personally I would just pull the axle shafts and bag it traditionally. This means no 4x4.

i agree with nislo...air over strut with drop spindles would be the easiest. (which I may conveniently be selling my bag over struts off my d40 soon as I will hopefully be redoing mine with bags and brackets)
The only other way I could think of would be to run a bag over the top control arm. I've only seen it pulled off properly once and the guy did quite a bit of stuff including moving a lot of stuff to make a many notch to mount the top brackets to and customer control arms and spindles to minimize chamber during travel.

Bizzare, do you have a bag kit installed on the factory strut or did you get an airstrut made for it?

They look like aftermarket bag over struts. Not 100% sure. they were on the truck when I bought it. They get a decent amount of travel but deflated on factory bump stops they sit about where i want them to be inflated. If you ran them with drop spindles it would probably be enough to tuck the tire when deflated.
