I can't see how electrical tape will resist the edges of the LCA for very long. What are the edges like...a flat surface to spread the load, or what?Code Pathfinder wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 6:16 amI fixed this issue by wrapping some electrical tape around the ball joint and it really snugged up the fitment of the ball joint. it had to be pressed into place after I wrapped it with the electrical tape. IS THIS OK TO DO OR WOULD YOU GET A NEW CONTROL ARM INSTEAD?
If you happen to remember, what's the length difference vs. the OEM links? I have looked at the Heim end links before but it doesn't look like they are meant for zero lift, or are maybe a bit too long when completely screwed in? But hard to tell.Code Pathfinder wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 10:47 pm2. The heim Sway Bar End Links are designed to replace and upgrade the crappy factory end links that are a common failure point on both the Nissan Armada, Nissan Titan, Nissan Frontier, Nissan Pathfinder, and Nissan Xterra. The heim end links are much stronger than the stock parts they replace and work much better on lifted or leveled vehicles. The main benefit of the heim Sway Bar End Link is the ability to handle more mis-alignment than the stock end links can.
Per Performancelifts.comsilverarrow27 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 11, 2020 12:12 amI have a rear set of PRG links that will be going into the rear and when I bought it, their site says:
"These are replacement sway bar end links for guys running tall leveling kits or extended travel upper a-arms. These are 1/4" to 1" longer than stock to prevent the endlinks from rotating past the center point on full suspension extension. These will work on all of the Nissan truck platforms. These ship ready to install on the Titan/Armada platform, to fit on Frontier/Xterra/Pathfinder they will need to be adjusted to the shortest setting and one link rotated....very easy to do. See the last pic."
Which is a bit confusing because they market it as an OE replacement.
Yeah, I think I've looked at those previously. I just ordered a set for the front, I'm not sure they fit the back though? The OEM part has a different number. I haven't removed the rear sway links in a loooooong time so can't remember if they are roughly the same?silverarrow27 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 11, 2020 12:12 amI have a rear set of PRG links that will be going into the rear and when I bought it, their site says:
