Rear suspension bushings

Has anyone replaced the rear suspension bushings?

Which ones were actually worn out? (Trailing arm bushings or lateral link bushings?)

How much labor is involved?

Thanks,

Dave

I don't believe you can find any A32-specific bushings for anything back there, really.

JSutter started a thread about poly trailing arm bushings a while back - http://forums.maxima.org/4th-generat...66#post5433405

I found the superpro thread already. OEM would be fine. My only experience with aftermarket bushings was a nasty squeaky set of ES control arm bushings.

In the past I've looked in Nissan FAST for the p/n of replacement bushings but there aren't any to be found.

However, today I was looking at the online parts catalog at www.worldpartsexpress.com and they did have individual bushings available for each trailing arm and both ends of the lateral link. This has me immensely curious, as my car is not very stable and solid and I've already replaced every bushing in the front of the car.

i have same problem with rear end. mine is horrible when turning. back end is real loose. pops and all kinds of crap. but i looked at the bushings and didnt see anything wrong. are there bushings on top of struts. thats sounds like where pops are coming from.
