Hi guys,

looked under the car with my mech yesterday and found that the bushes on both side of the car has cracked.

Sorry i don't have a photo but the on the front lower arm of the car, the bushing that is towards the back of the car is the one i'm referring to.

It would cause the wearing out the front tyres quick.

Nissan would only sell them bushes WITH the arm, like $200+ each side

Anybody used these replacement bushes before? R these the correct ones?

Cheers!

Same thing happened to mine, I went through nissan and had both sides done inc. labour for $180 a side.

It wasn't long after that that I saw that you were able to just replace the bushes, and yes they will be the bushes that you are after.

Been there, done that. Nissan NZ quoted me NZD$400+ (might have been closer to $500 - can't remember exactly) per side for the whole arm so you got off lightly with that quote!

As per the last post you definitely can replace just the bushes. Mine were done under a mechanical warranty, and the warranty co told Nissan to get stuffed with the quote for the arms and instead sourced just the bushes themselves and supplied those to the dealer. Got fitted with no dramas - now no more nasty squeaks from the front of the car.

This is a quote i got a few months back on the parts
