# Nissan Frontier Forsberg Edition Gets Nismo Lift Kit, Off-Road Shocks

*\<em\>Nissan\</em\>*

Though not as hyped as the [2024 Toyota Tacoma](<https://www.thedrive.com/car-reviews/2024-toyota-tacoma-first-drive-review-specs-price-options-impressions>) or [Ford Ranger](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/2024-ford-ranger-arrives-in-us-with-new-look-more-engines-405-hp-raptor-trim>), the [Nissan Frontier](<https://www.thedrive.com/new-cars/41734/2022-nissan-frontier-pro-4x-first-drive-whats-old-is-new-again>) is still one of my favorite trucks. There's a lot to be said these days for a vehicle that feels as analog as it does. Now, Nismo is making it more engaging still, with a lift kit you can get installed on your new Frontier—or the truck you already have.

This limited-edition off-roading package is based on the one trialed in Formula D champ [Chris Forsberg](<https://www.thedrive.com/watch-this/18567/formula-drift-driver-chris-forsberg-drives-a-nascar-race-car-on-the-street>)'s [Nissan](<https://www.thedrive.com/category/nissan-news>) race truck in the recent NORRA 500. Forsberg won the Stock Production class with a Frontier outfitted as follows, and while the results haven't been published so we can't tell how competitive the class was, the parts list makes clear this is more capable than a traditional Frontier Pro-4X if not as hardcore as a [Chevy Colorado ZR2](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/2023-chevy-colorado-drops-with-silverados-2-7l-and-new-zr2-model>).

Based on the crew cab version of the pickup, the Forsberg Edition is a raft of race-tested Nismo Off Road performance parts. It starts with a Nismo lift kit, which includes forged upper control arms, performance shocks, and 17-inch Axis beadlock wheels. They fit 31.6-inch Yokohama Geolandar X-AT tires that are the same size as the [Pro-4X](<https://www.thedrive.com/car-reviews/2023-nissan-frontier-pro-4x-off-road-review-mojave-overland-tested>)'s, so they probably don't net you more than the factory 9.5 inches of ground clearance. But you still get rock sliders, a roof rack with LED lights, and a Nismo catback exhaust. Of course, they also throw in Forsberg Racing decals and a badge denoting your truck's exclusivity.

The Nissan Frontier Forsberg Edition will be available as a dealer-installed accessory package for both new and preexisting 2022-onward Frontiers starting this fall. It'll retail for $9,999, which is indeed pricey but you're paying a premium for OEM-plus parts. That extra cost may justify itself with performance alone, or maybe just resale value down the road. After all, there's a world of difference between a rare OEM performance package and some slapdash project truck.

No offense to you [project truck](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/single-cab-short-bed-ram-trx-is-like-a-photoshop-brought-to-life>) owners out there.
