rear end shifting when shifting.

[GEOz2k7]

Alright, was wondering if anyone encountered this problem in there pathmaker. i got a 1990 and every time i am driving and i go to shift my back end shifts side to side. Big brand said it could be my bushings in my links, has anyone had this happen and or fixed it? And where might i find those bushing at? any clue?

 

 

thanks grant

4x4 parts has new bushings or u can buy pre-assembled links from nissan.

 

have you checked your panhard rod?

Yes and yes. Don't forget the pan hard rod, the #1 lateral stabilizer...

whats the pan hard?

and what bushings should i actually do? Pan hard bushings?, Trailing arm bushings??, Tension arm?,

[Precise1]

Yes...

 

Sorry. Without being there, jacking up the truck, pushing, pulling and inspecting (maybe disassembling), I can't really tell you what needs to be replaced.

I can tell what to look at and mention previously posted solutions though...

 

The pan hard rod (there is another name for it) goes from the rear axle to the frame, horizontally; it minimizes lateral shift and locates the axle.
