Constantly replacing compression rod bushings
dajoyal replied to RCWD21's topic in 90-95 WD21 Pathfinders
i just replaced mine last weekend and welded the bearing race and washer to the frame just like you did... It's only been a week but looking good so far... The only thing I could say is that the bearing race I used was LM67010... It fit just a little bit loose around the bushing -
I have never replace my bolts.. but one of mine snapped a long time ago and I took it into a shop (before i started working on it on my own) and they welded a bolt in there somehow. I took it in to get aligned last year and they said they couldn't because there was no way they could get shims in the upper control arm where that bolt was welded. (apparently they just welded the whole thing so there's no adjustment anymore) My alignment is terrible now because of that and I want to fix it and somehow get that welded bolt out of there. Any recommendations?? When you put new bolts in what did you do?? Did you drill the old one out of the frame and then thread it with a tap?? Or do you go through the frame and put a nut on one side?

Thanks! Just picked them up and those were the right size... I'm hopefully gonna be doing this project either this weekend or the next... Got new tension rods and bushings

what size of bearing race did you use to make those cup things?
