Question:
I know the standard duty RAS3611 is confirmed to fit my truck, but I would like to know if there is any reason that I couldnt install the HD version RAS3611-HD? Also, I saw that you have to remove the rollerinch on the top of the leaf springs on the Titan XDs for install of this product, is that correct? Does the roller get put back after install? And if not, does loosing this roller affect performance of the suspension in any way? Please explain as fully as you can. Also, I will be installing traction bars on my truck in the future, I dont see this being a conflict as they are from the bottom of the leaf spring support to the frame. Do you see this being a problem?

Expert Reply:
I would not recommend the part # RAS3611-HD for your 2017 Nissan Titan XD. This kit is designed for heavier duty vehicles so it would make your suspension harsh. The part # RAS3611 is the correct kit you'd want. It will give you the suspension support you want and won't make the ride harsh. The roller does have to be permanently removed though. I attached a picture that shows that step of the instructions for this kit.
The roller has to be removed so that the spring of the RAS can lay across the leaf spring like it needs to. Without it the suspension will work fine. The RAS acts as the new overload spring so without the roller you are overall better off than before.
