Whats your rear lift?

Did you use shims?

I have 2" AAL and 2" lift shackles and used 3deg shims. No vibes.

Similar to Phong, I have a 2" Alcan leaf pack and adjustable PRG shackles, with 3 degree shims. No noticeable vibrations.

Youre 2012 probably has more arch in the rear leafs than your 07.

A 3 or 4deg shim is a good fix for you, it shiuld come with a new center pin. But also get new u bolts.

Try this, weigh the back of your Xterra down with a 300-500lbs of people or gear. The vibes will probably go away. Then youll know if you need them.

I get them directly from the PRG webiste.

http://Www.prgproducts.com

But Nisstec or 4x4parts is fine too.
