Re: Rear End Suspension Link Replacement

Tool is availiable from a site in germany right now, and includes an additional brace that might mitigate some of the damage the loan-tool has faced in the past. http://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/accessories/tools/tools-suspension-steering/fitting-tool-suspension-bushing-rear-axle/1018424/ the br...

Re: Upper torque arm head support broken

I had problems with Proparts arm and bushing set, too. It slid around too much and caused so much engine vibration. I couldn't for the life of me understand why an engine with all new mounts all around rattled like my beater, a 99 Altima. I ponied up and just bought the OEM bracket and bushing and ...

Re: Upper torque arm head support broken

When I first got the car, the torque arm bushing was shot. Rather than deal with press fitting a new one, I bought the assembly from FCP (Torque Arm Bracket With Bushing - Pro Parts Sweden 3524345). It has always had some play between the bushing and bracket. It was also below freezing when this pho...

Upper torque arm head support broken

Hey all, the pictured part broke pretty violently on the highway, causing the whole torque arm to rattle around and the engine to shake in the bay. The two larger (13mm?) bolts holding the arm to the block were also loose. What is it called and where can I get a replacement? Luckily I was able to pu...
