I am ready to order the set of Tokico blues from Group A Motorsports for my 96Q. At 100k miles do you all recommend replacing the boots and bushings and is there anything else? Is Infiniti of Scottsdale the best place for these additional parts? Does someone have an illustration of the assembly? Thanks.

It's all in your shop manual that came with your car!Don't have one, get one before you do anything, and spend a week studying everything.By 100k [7-8 years since left Japan] everything that is rubber isolated has hardened/cracked/changed and nowhere near as new specs.

Infinti of scottsdale has good prices +service according to all members who have used them, also Infinti of Lisle matches their prices and many have also used Midway Infiniti w/ great results.

As for illustrations, Dennis is right as usual.

If you need a service manual put a WTB into our Buy/Sell/Trade section.It is very active and you have a good chance of finding one.

Also have u ever checked under the trunk above the spare in your car?All Q's came w/ a Service manual from factory and many long time owners dont know they have one.

Worth a shot to check.

Rear boots are $61 from Scottsdale - Tell Joe you're a NICO member.

Those guys at Group A are gonna owe NICO some advertising $$$ - Think I'll hit 'em up next week when I pick up my shocks.
