Helpful Expert Reply:

For your 2014 Nissan Xterra 4x4 I recommend the Timbren helper springs # TJRC01. Timbren springs get progressively stiffer the more weight is put on them to better support the vehicle when under load. When not loaded or towing a trailer you may experience a little bit of a stiffer ride.

I have included a link to our help article on Timbren springs for you.
