I can help you with this Dr.T I have a selection of preowned suspension arms available but I would require confirmation of which one you require. The bearings in the links below are Genuine Nissan and brand new and are good to go next day.

3FIDDYZ Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Mate, before you buy any of the bits your looking at I would take Alex's advice... He knows what hes talking about and if you buy the stuff from the US there may be differences... And you need to take into account weight for shipping and tax... At least you know what your getting from alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adriank Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 That is the exact same problem i had - although my bush was much worse than that. I replaced them both with moonface racing roll center adjusters, very good quality parts and should bring my geometry back inline with stock. Don't know if its any use to you, but i have a new JDM 350z Off side (drivers side) hub carrier with that new bush on it i need to sell..... not needed now i have the moonface racing parts.
