Lower control arm bushings

Jul 12th, 2003, 05:21 PM

The lower control arm bushings on my son's '92 Maxima are worn. I have been told "assembly only", but those bushings don't look impossible to replace. Does anyone know of a replacement bushing so we can save some money on this car?
Thanks

yeah...energy suspension bushing swaps are quite common. it'll help your handling too!

I'm pretty sure you have to get those bushings pressed in by a shop.
I just went to a junkyard and got 2 control arms for $35.

Still looking for bushings. I had the local yard remove a couple of lower arms. They turned out to be as bad as mine.(also,they wanted $90 for the two

Haha. Christ, that reminds me of the crap we did in high school chemistry to get the equipment unstuck before the teacher caught us.

Wow, cool. This is just what I needed. I just replaced my lower control arm front bushings with those instructions, they were golden. Now I just have to get to the rear bushings, and my front end is fixed.
