This is a problem across teh range of GQ and GU and is a know weakness.. Its a Biatch.

NO is the answer, Nissan has done nothing about it and likely wont. You can get a brace kit for the spring towers from Superiors for $120, Single piece. but you need to have a 2" body lidft to fit it in so a GQ with a BL is ok but not common on a GU. The Coil cab guys just lift the tray off and install them.

You can get a Weld on brace kit to that can be added to a GU but cant tell you much more about it. It will add gussets to the towers and resolve some of the trouble.

Heavy touring + Heavy load + corrugations and you win the prize!!

Superor also make a very impressive bolt in tower brace kit for the GU and it is on my list of future mods for sure. It can be donw without a body lift and is a solid bit of kit.

I have the spring tower brace plate in my GQ from Superior as seen in the posts below
