My bad for being incomplete. I was only looking at #6 as the lower control arm, which it is, but so is #9. I guess that's why Nissan calls them front and rear lower links instead. For #9, the bushing #8 is sold separately and that is the item that is typically going to wear out over time. As VStar mentioned, the torque shown is 175Nm (18kg-m, 129lb/ft) The X in the circle means do not reuse. However, when the used nuts and bolts that have this indication appear to be in perfectly fine condition, that indication is typically ignored.Spatula wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 8:36 amTo clarify, in the service manual the schematic refers to part #9 as "Rear Lower Link." But this is the same part that my mechanic referred to as the" Rear Lower Control Arm" and also known as the "Coil Bucket," right? These terms are interchangeable?
I just want to make sure I'm asking the right questions, before I really F something up lol.
Also, does the wrench with 175 next to mean that's the ft/lb torque? What are the other numbers in the brackets? And what does the X in the circle mean?
