mine is completely shot. and i mean shot very "wavy" & weaving left/right at highway speeds. the smallest crack makes this thing hop and the squeakiness is like shes talking to me.
But the question i have here for my fellow max enthusiasts is since im getting all 4 struts replaced (quick struts) what else should be looked over or checked? an alignment is needed aswell but i want to replace everything that needs replacing in the front end beforehand ive rode with the rears shot for atleast 6 months so im positive the fronts need help now. however im finally getting all of my priority's right and fixing her up. you guy's have some awe inspiring max's/infiniti's i plan on turning heads and keeping the odo moving!
ive got 251000 miles!

 

We cannot tell you what needs to be replaced, you have to inspect the components yourself or have a shop inspect it for you.

Things to look at are, tie rod ends, sway bar bushings & end links, lower control arm ball joint and bushings.

 

Well it depends man first off if ur not lowering it go with the Monroe quick struts for front and rear. Check ur ball joints and lca bushings, tirod ends sway bar links/bushings many things can cause ur issues. The only way we can help is if u look for urself and tell us what looks bad or whats new... U know ? Haha
