OEM part # does not exist?
I need the bushing that the front strut fork bolts on to. They're pressed into the compression rod.
I got the rear ones that press into the rear knuckle and they look identical, the front are press in as well, however the dealers here are saying you need the entire compression rod. They're press in so.. that's either a stupid design or a lazy excuse.
The reason I want an OEM part number is because it's a huge rush and I'm in Canada.. the dealer can get me parts within 48 hours but if I order from the US, it takes a week or $100 to ship things that quickly here so I'd like to avoid that.

That looks a lot like the LCA (lower control arm) and you should be able to find busings on our MARKETPLACE under verdor suspension. Compression Rod Bushing are a totally different part which costs $50 delivered on this side of the border.

Yeah I meant LCA haha not compression rod, my mistake. It's the center bushing on it. I was hoping for an OEM number since I'm in Canada, I can't wait a week for shipping from the US for whiteline bushings.
The whiteline number is w52992, and after talking to a bunch of people I don't think Nissan was smart enough to make this part separately.
