WTB R32 tie rod ends

[EVL34]

hey im after R32 gts-t tie rod ends?????... in sydney......

they're the same as 1990+ maxima's and A31 cefiros if that helps you. A local wrecker of Aussie nissan cars should be able to hook you up with a cheap one.

u can get em new from nissan too i think for about $250 the pair..

[funkymonkey]

$265.85 from blackburn nissan in melbourne to be exact. Got a pair for my ceffy not long ago for roadworthy as I had cracked boots on mine.

What about R33 ones - do they fit? Are they easier to source?

[SRG33]

I recently replaced my left outer tie rod end for my 33.. costed about $120 + labour...

Fk - that's a lot for a tie rod. Surely you can get a generic one

[funkymonkey]

actually, that $265 included some washers, a couple of boots for other things and a aircon filter, so it might not be that exxy direct from nissan. I didn't have the time to hunt a generic one, but for reference sake I'd like to know any compatible parts.

Has anyone replaced the rear tie rod ends?

Hi I have and you not going to like what is involved.

if its just the inner ball joint, they are $112 each from nissan, if its the outer 'tierod' joint that conects to the hub they are $75 each, only catch is they have to be pressed into the hub which is easier when it is off of the car. labour for pressing 8 bushes cost me $150 but not sure about cost for removing/refitting hubs. IF you remove the hubs you may as well replace all the other bushes in it also. each of those little bushes is$25 each from Nissan.

so you could be looking at around $500 for parts plus fitting labour plus wheel align.

It made a noticeable difference on my car. see other thread in suspension forum.
