rear sway bar links are pretty easy to install and are not a major problem. altough that price isnt that bad probly charging you 1hr install plus the parts. IMO do it your self on the weekend jus make sure you have both rear wheels in the air at the same time or you will have fun tryin 2 get them in. if im not mistaken.. the 2 bolts on either side that mount to the control arm are 14mm and the 1 nut to the sway bar is 14mm pretty quick job overall. have fun gl

replacing the entire sway bar plus the front isnt really easy at least not on the ground. if you want to upgrade i guess now is a pretty good time since ur spending money to fix the same system. every break down is a chance to upgrade right?.gl

It's a very good idea to get better sway bars and links but you can just buy the end links to fix the problem. Aftermarket end links are nice to have sice the G's are not the best.

It's the links.

You can buy new ones for like 15$ each from Riverside Infiniti sponsor.

The current ones are redsigned from the 04s and beefier. I have never had problems with them since I replaced them.
