My 2010 Frontier has 6 coils on the springs, My 2013
Xterra has 8 coils on the springs.
I ordered some Monroe struts from Rockauto for the
Frontier that were tagged "Direct factory replacements"
but they have 10 coils and 1" longer travel.
I'm afraid they will be to rigid for a 2WD truck. Any
helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I would send them back for a Refund, and Ask for Free Return
Shipping; Especially Since They Were Not As Advertised.

AI Gemini might be helpful in finding the correct part. They help
me all the time on things like this and they might be able to
compare who has the lowest price On A Genuine Nissan OEM
Part.

When It come's to my Nissan, I usually alway's want OEM
Nissan. I go to NissanPartsDeal.com; plug in my actual VIN,
locate the part and get the part # and then go shopping online ie
amazon, Ebay, WalMart.com, and a whole lot of other Places to
try and find the lowest price: *** BUT I MAKE SURE THAT THE
PART IS A GENUINE NISSAN OEM PART *** NOT A DIRECT
REPLACEMENT, ETC ***.

Some people are afraid of EBay, Amazon, WalMart.com,, but
I've gotten Genuine Nissan OEM parts from all of them as well
as others online,, but You just have to be careful WHO You buy
from to protect your money. I alway's try to get Free Shipping
and Free Return's,, just in case something is not right.
