Heavy Duty RoadActive Suspension Fit For 2017 Nissan Titan

Question:

I see options for an HD rear active suspension but not when I filter for my 2017 Titan, 2wd, SV. Is there an HD option for my truck?

I checked directly with the manufacturer for you and can verify there is indeed an HD version of the RoadActive Suspension that fits your 2017 Nissan Titan, which is the following part number:

- RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit - Heavy Duty # RAS3611-HD

The # RAS3611-HD will fit your '17 Titan and is a really smart choice for suspension enhancement for your truck because it is an active system like you said, so it continually reinforces your original leaf spring suspension. What that means is the force that would normally go to your Titan's OEM leaf springs will instead be transferred to the RAS Enhancement Kit, allowing your OEM leaf springs to work normally.

This will help your Titan level out and give you much improved handling and traction. The reason for that is, normally when are towing or even have a heavy load in your truck bed, your factory leaf springs flatten, causing the back end to sag, which leads to more difficult handling. The RAS kit will actively counteract that, allowing your front wheels to stay completely on the ground instead of being slightly raised under the weight.
