I have a JDM Nissan Cima '02 and both my front tension rods are torn and leaking grease. I'm looking to replace them and found the OEM part on amayama.com, (part no. 54468AR500), but I've been told they're prone to early failure. Is there an alternative (more robust) solution than the OEM part?

I have the 4WD variant so i'm unsure if the wishbone (for the RWD models) would be compatible.

Any input would be helpful,
Thanks!

Google the part number and see if any cross references pop up.

I'm currently looking at Megan Racing tension rod replacements but it seems to only go till the 2001 Q45 (Y33). Wondering if anyone has tried to install them on the GNF50 variants from 2002
