Question:
I have about 1.5-inch sag and would like to know if the Sumo Spring setup would work as an alternative to the Firestone Air Springs?

Expert Reply:
There are only two suspension enhancement options for a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder, the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4118 and Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs part # CSS-1195R. They will both work well to reduce sag but the air bags are a much better option since you can reduce pressure while not in use for a factory ride. The SumoSprings would be engaged constantly so you'll get a rougher ride while not towing.
