option #1 new oem beam and right and left hub cost over 900 with install

option #2 used beam from maxima with 120k hubs included 150-200 plus 300 for install


better to go new on this or is used acceptable? my mechanic says a used one should be fine whats your take on this?

why do you need a new one?
make sure the used one isnt bent and yes i'd say go with the used one

go used, check if the first ones bad, you spend another 300 to find another one, your still at $600, you still saved $300 over the $900 install

Oh shes twisted like my x girlfriend believe me. I can see the camber on the wheel and I payed 40 dollars at a frame shop for thier diagnosis. The beam is bent and the hub on the right side is bent as well from prior damage before I bought the car.
