Hey guys, I had a small mishap with my car and hit the curb hard resulting in bending some suspension parts along with destroying a rim. I had a tech come by to check on the car, and he identified the parts that have to be repaired, however I am having difficulty identifying this one part that I need to order.

this is the bent bar (driver's side rear)


and for comparison, this is the bar that is untouched/not damaged (passenger side rear)


What is the name of this bar?

 

Rear Camber Arm (aka #21 Front Lower Link) .. looks like you also bent the traction Rod (aka #22 Radius Rod)

 

oh damn, thanks man! Am I better off buying these parts from Nissan, or are there any specific after-market places I can order from? the entire suspension set-up of the car is factory. I'm a noob with suspension!

 

should I order these?

if you have no plans to alter the OEM suspension (i.e. lowering springs, coilovers, etc), i would go with OEM replacements. there are many people here that have went aftermarket alignment bars and would sell you the OEM parts for cheap.

 

I still have my stock arms if your interested. shoot me a PM..

 

updates op? did you get it fixed.......alignment? all good now?

OP I had a similar accident and it "looked" as simple as replacing the same exact rod you have the arrows pointing to in your picture. After further inspection it turned out that my lower control arm/spring bucket was warped beyond repair and my rear sub-frame was cracked. I'm not saying this is the case in your situation but just some food for thought.

Very similar pictures...

 

Ya i had a friend that had this happen to him....he could see tweaks on the subframe, etc.....he just bought adjustable arms - the same two you are replacing and went on his way..........

i suggested a shop with lazer alignment to check everything and fix it but he didnt care too..
