I am attempting to locate rear bump stops for my q. I found these below for 34.96 a piece, any possibility of finding them cheaper somewhere, i hate to drop 70 bucks for pieces of rubber, anyone have a retro fit solution for this?

i show PN 55240-r50003

well 4X4 parts have polyurethane ones for 100 a pair https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/polyure ... 7_349.html

It dosnt help with the price, i know, but if you eventually do choose to buy brand new ones, i think polyU ones are much stiffer and are substantially more durable

yea mine disintegrated, and whenever i have somebody in the back seat and hit a big pump it bottoms out hard core, and i am afraid of damaging my brand new shocks and also anything else to the vehicle. in reality i suppose i need some stronger springs or do the airbag mod.

i think the QX4 is so rare youre not gonne find those bumpstops anywhere else. i doubt anybody makes them aftermarket, so OEM only

Your best bet, on saving money, is to try and find someone who has a wholesale account with Nissan / Infiniti. Perhaps a mechanic friend or something. Probably be $25 each instead of $40 each.
