As you can tell from my title.....I'm looking for some suspension parts.

Long story short....I lost my line and spun out, hit a curb, and now I need parts doh....I'm fine, but my baby acquired some injuries!

I've got a new rim and tire, but now I need the following:

Right Rear...

1. Radius Rod2. Front Lower Link3. Stabilizer Connecting Rod

Here's a few pics of the damage....poor G

Shows tire rubbage, mostly cosmetic damage

Stabilizer Connecting Rod and Front Lower Link

Radius Rod

Rim aftermath

Rim pieces...ouch

Poor shock

Any info/link will be appreciated.Or if anyone has a scrap G or has extra parts that would be even better!!!

I've bought a few junkyard parts from the above address and never had a bad experience.

I broke the same suspension parts on my 2001 Altima but it was due to driving in the rain not driftin :-)

Try to find one place that has all your parts and save on shipping!

Sweet....thx Jeff.

I'm gonna checkout some salvage yards around town this week and I might get lucky. For some reason I don't think there'll be much G's layin around haha. I'll checkout your site. I've always been a big fan of sittin on my butt and let things come to me I guess I'm just kinda lazy like that

I did a search before I sent it too you and there were 4 pages of rear links and control arms.

Most times if they have one part they have them all or can get them all. Don't waste your time trying to email the yards you have to call them to get results.

I've bought quite a few 6.1 Hemi motor parts off that site that DC had given new sale restrictions. For about a year it was the only way to get your hands on a 6.1 Hemi aluminum intake manifold and a 6.1 Hemi set of fuel injectors. The stock 5.7 Hemi injectors can only support about 320-330 rwhp :-) and lean is dangerous!

Good LUCK!

Jeff

Yup...I think you're right about the e-mail....Bubba at the salvage yard doesn't seem to be checking his today There looks to be some pretty good prices....that's a great site for finding random parts

Thx again

Yep,

It was the only way to get a 6.1 Hemi intake manifold for about a year and even then it was $800! YIKES

I've used it to replace lost broken parts for family and freinds for a couple years now and never had a bad transaction.

When I traded my Ram on the G there were 2 holes I drilled in the dash for nitrous switches. The Infiniti dealership wanted me to replace that piece of dash trim. I ordered it and it came with a couple small holes in it. So I called them and they sent me another one. I took it to the Infiniti dealership and they had already sent my truck to auction so they told me to keep the part. I called the yard and asked to return it. They said that I could keep it and they would give me a 50% refund. I took the refund and sold both the dash parts on ebay for twice what I originally paid + kept the 50% refund. I think I made $100 on the deal LOL
