2001 Pathfind er, I have replaced the rear shocks, and the sway bar bushings were shot, I was told the front shocks/struts felt tight. Best description might be a "yawl" like rolling on the sea, more noticeable at freeway speeds but still detectable at 30-40 mph - Any help would be appreciated!

or more specifically, the bushings on each end of the control arm, usually its the lowers but dont rule out the uppers

you can replace with lower control arm from nissan with bushings pressed in or you can buy better bushings at 4x4parts.com and press them in yourself with some elbow grease, the latter will be stronger but a little more time consuming
