any idea how much this will/should cost? stupid ball joints

Ok so I have a vibration too, and some noises when I drive over bumps, sounds like there's a bunch of loose parts underneath yikes.

Got the car looked at by a few people and also dropped off at the shop here's what came back as the problem area(s)

What i'm looking for is to find out some pricing on some of this stuff. I'm in Germany (Army) it's hard to find parts for an Infiniti here, so hopefully i can order this stuff.

Let me know if anyone can guess ballpark what I should be paying for this stuff please.

-Left and Right lower ball joints with control arms
-Left upper ball joint with control arms
-Left stabilizer links
-Left rear brake caliper (it's stuck, wheel wont spin)

I just noticed as I was typing everything is left, weird!

thanks a lot.

-Left and Right lower ball joints with control arms - No need to get the whole control arm, you can replace just the ball joints. Stock ones are ~$60

-Left upper ball joint with control arms - Don't know, never replaced them but I don't see how they would be more than the lower ones

-Left stabilizer links - I bought aftermarket adjustable sway bar end links (Powergrid) for $175. Stock will be MUCH cheaper

-Left rear brake caliper (it's stuck, wheel wont spin) - Never replaced a rear one but I upgraded to the 2005+ dual piston calipers and rotors. Bought them used off of a member here for $275 (Both front calipers, rotors, and brake lines)

Hopefully this will give you some idea. I bought all my stuff online so it can be done even though you live in germany.

Good luck!

I had to replace a set of calipers on the I35. I was told it was because I never used the parking brake. You have to use it, it turns out, to prevent destroying the caliper. I didn't know that and I still don't use it (5AT) because I often forget to release it.

I think they were under $500. I gave away the receipts with the sale of the car.
