Setting up for Patrol use

Nissan Patrol owners often use a shock like this for towing, highway cruising and rough tracks, so damping needs change with load. An adjustable reservoir shock lets you set compression and rebound to suit the vehicle’s weight and tire size. Start with a middle setting, drive a short route, then make small changes one at a time so the effect is clear.

Shock replacement usually works best when the other suspension parts are checked too. Worn bushings, leaking seals and tired springs change how a shock loads and can shorten its service life. Route reservoir hoses clear of the tire and any moving components. If shocks are replaced in pairs, match both ends so the vehicle handles evenly from side to side.
