Rear UPPER Control Arm part numbers? (1 Viewer)

[nissanh]

I am putting a list of OEM suspension arms to replace in my 2000 LC suspension.

I have a question about the rear upper arms. There are two part numbers and wonder one per side: 4871060080 and 4871060070

ROD ASSY, REAR LATERAL CONTROL
4874060080

ARM ASSY, LOWER CONTROL, RH/LH
4872060040

Thanks

That's correct. Not sure if I missed a different part of your question or if you just wanted verification. But yeah that's them.

4871060070 is right upper
4871060080 is left upper
4872060040 x2 are the lowers
4874060080 is the panhard rod/lateral control arm

Great! exactly what I needed. Thanks...

Do you feel a big difference in ride quality after replacing those?

Mine are good, no rattling or any sound, but surely not a soft ride especially when going over pot holes and uneven surfaces.

It seemed to clear up a rattle for me, and I wanted to do a full overhaul on the truck and not worry about it for a long time. The ride is better overall, but like I said there was a lot changed at once so its hard to say what had the most effect.

I think it's worth doing if you plan to keep it a while. If the bars are in good shape you can save money by replacing bushings only. That's what I did. 21 years old and they look brand new after a wipe down. I also did the bushings and cushions on my AHC shocks. Those were pretty bad.

New rear control arms at 300k miles reduced the squirm I had noticed on the highway. Wish I could have found an OEM bushing kit, but they seemed to be made of unobtainium at the time.

Where did you source your upper/lower trailing arm bushings? Pretty sure thats what has been creaking on my truck. Noticeable on acceleration.

Your comment jogged my memory. These are Toyota bushes that are compatible, which is to say they're from a 200 series or GX or something. There is no official part number in the diagrams for the 100 series so this is the only option without going aftermarket or whole new arms. Whether the rubber is slightly different I cannot say, but their dimensions are exact and they work well for me.

4870260110 x4 lower
4870260090 x4 upper
4870660060 x2 panhard

I'm a moron. I thought I was replying to another thread mentioning the Senkei 555 bushings, but now that I think about it, that poster was probably referring to a whole trailing arm unit. That's what I get for reading late at night. Thank you, haha.
