Hi, the Stabilizer link on my 96 maxima needs to be replaced on front passenger side. It seems like it may be a job that i can do on my own. What type of tools would i need, and is it an easy fix to accomplish? thanks

Extremely easy to fix. Just need a 14mm wrench/socket and you should be good to go! Welcome to NICO!

You may have to cut/grind a nut or two off if the stud spins inside the ball joint portion of the link. I had to use a sawzall and dremmel on 2 nuts when I replaced both of mine.
I would recommend you replace both sides while your at it.
