lower control arm help

Hey guys im in need of a lower control arm and/or a "knuckle". Im curious if a other nissan vehicles lower control arm or knucle would fit on my 2004 g35x.

Can anyone help me out and tell me if a lower control arm off other nissan cars would fit? It would make it much easier to find at some local junkyard.

Thank you guys

you're referring to the transverse link (in the FSM) right?... are you sure you need the whole arm or just the bushing? I just bought Nismo bushings from Performance Nissan (mynismo) $40 each (the inside bushing): http://www.mynismo.com/cart/

… Z1 has Whiteline bushings (inside and outside): http://www.z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?m...ng&prodid=3783

yes ty, but im going to find one at a local junkyard. What i was wondering, would a lower arm off, lets say a maxima or altima or 350 fit? just so it would be easier to find that a g35

use the drill down in the link I provided and cross reference the part numbers... if they are the same as any of the other cars you have access to then yes.

Edit - I just realized the drill down menu doesnt provide part numbers... call them and see if the part numbersare the same.

That would be called the Spring Bucket. You can use a spring bucket off of a 350Z, it's all the same.

Also if you need to replace one of those, I'd have it checked for other suspension damage also.
