I was about to do rear trailing arm bushings and found this thread

http://myspec-v.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1904

sentra's have the same dependent suspension () as we have in 5 and 5.5 gen

I know lowering the car will move center of gravity, but will it cause any problems on the back? like rubbing or slight displacement of tires OR a problem like mentioned with Sentra's?

Another question - is this mod a useful thing on our cars?

all of your opinions matter

"When you lower your Sentra (SAME ON MAXIMA), the Scott Russell link on the rear axle pushes it to one side. The wheels are still aligned with each other, and they are still aligned with the centerline of the car, but they are not aligned properly behind the front wheels.

If your car is lowered, and you haven't rolled your rear fender lips, you might have thse bumps. If you only have it on one side, it's probably the passenger side. This is because your axle is pushed to that side.



Also the directional bushing at one end of the SR link is pushed to one side of it's compliance. This is that "directional" bushing. Spending all it's time in the compliance slot can cause it to wear out prematurely.



This part fixes this problem. These are purely prototype stage at this point. They will be slightly different in the finished version.



This is what you SR link looks like from the factory.



This is the aluminum link inside the SR link, compared with the adjustable link at full extension, and at minimum extension.



This is how it goes in the SR link.



all the info taken from spec-v forums

this thing went through extensive testing and is available for sell on one of the sentra forums - B15U.COM

does this mod worth money for you guys?

so all this does is ... just recenter the beam.... what other benefits would there be? IIRC you can do this manually.

Sorry for bringing this back from the dead but im curious on something. My max has acquired a low speed shake/vibration. Checked everything and all seems good minus leaking trailing arm bushings. I spoke w Joe from 2j racing and he said it could be from a bad scott russell link. Has anyone had a link replaced or had a vibration from say 20-30 mph and had it fixed with the SRL
