I FINALLY got the front end links nuts off this morning after soaking them in PB Blast even more and using a combo wrench on the nut and a pair of pliers on the inner nut and using all the strength I could muster.

I didn't have a wrench big enough for the inner one...18 or 19mm I think it was....was just careful not to tear the rubber boot or whatever it was on the inside.

The rear was more of the same...rusted on nuts which were a PITA. Finally finished after a couple of hours...seemed like it took longer than it should have.

Anyway...took the car out for a ride on some twisty roads after and what a difference.

Oh yeah, you definitely should start lubricating and banging those nuts now before you get all intimate with it.

Hey **** happens I was so psyched to get these but soon after I got these I found out I would have to sell my car. The good news is that the money is going towards the new car which I haven't decided what it is yet. The part out thread is coming soon.

I put mine on this weekend and just like everyone else has said.

Install should have been easy but the end links were a BIZNATCH to get off.. one side came off easy but the other was messed up.

All in all I am happy with the improved handling, but I just realized that I will be burning thru tires much faster than before.

With this set up the car encourages you to take corners faster..

Thanks bro. Its no problem I realized a couple days ago my lease is over next June and not this June. I was going to sell the car to my cousin and pay the rest to Infiniti, but now Im gonna keep it until the lease is over. I might put these on since I got a year to go. Does anyone know if these would fix vibrations coming from the front of the car its really bad.

I put mine on in about an hour this morning and I had better luck than some others as I didn't have any trouble with any of the bolts/nuts being frozen. Front and rear are on the stiffest setting and it handles so much better! I think I may put the rear to the middle position though, I'm pretty sure the inside rear wheel is coming up when I really push it in tight corners.
