Part number for 2002 is EV458. 2003 is EV427. Nissan has different part numbers as well, but in the ghustle thread some speculate that they are interchangeable. Has anyone confirmed this?

I bought the EV458's for my 2003, as Amazon listed it for my car.

Speaking of which, if anyone needs the EV458's amazon has them for $23 ea! Ignore the wrong pic they have listed (strut), I got them and the are MOOG USA inner tie rods.

 

That's a GREAT price Baffler. Rock Auto charges $38.79 plus shipping for that part! $45.86 from Amazon or $85.51 from Rock Auto. I have to remember this in the future when I go to replace these.

 

If you want 'em, don't wait, get 'em NOW. the 'Zon plays all kind of pricing games. Two days ago I bought the second-to-last set of Dorman LCA's for $42 and $59 shipped! After I cleared my cart they popped back up to $78.

I also got a pair of strut mounts for $4 ea :-D Just have to keep an eye out. I think Amazon's auto section has been such a cluster that the occasionally try and move stuff dirt cheap.

[edit: who ever want's 'em, here's the last pair.]

If it's the same thread I think you're talking about, I gave a link to the Nissan catalog which shows a supersession(= interchangeable) between the parts. I would imagine they simply had a design change or they switched manufacturers, which happens often.

 

I didn't see the link as I just searched the thread for the part #. Moog's site also says EV458 fits 2000-2003 Maximas.
