SWAY BAR HNU12
« on: Aug 27, 2011, 01:40PM »
Does anyone knows what other Nissan models use the same front sway bar from the hnu12?
May be a U13, Stanza or Altima?.. ??? ... Need to get this fix asap for the year inspection in my country..

Is the bar broken? Or bent? It's specific to the hnu12 and rnu12 awd models.

You used to be able to buy them from whiteline here in Australia, but I don't think you can anymore. I have one on my car and so does Hugh, not sure if anyone else ever bought one!

I think your best bet may be to remove it and straighten it out if you can. The stock bar does have a FACTORY 'dint' in the middle of it, where it sort of squishes, so if thats the issue then its there from the factory.

Put up a picture of the damage if you can mate.

Found what was making the sway bar hitting against the car chassis.. The suspension sway bar bushings were really bad, plus one of the metal parts that hold those bushings was gone... So put some new urethane bushes, also  found the metal part that holds it to the bar and chassis  8)... but when checking the suspension found other 2 suspension part that are in bade shape  >:( , don't know how to put it in English but they will be fixed soon, the yearly check from the government is already due so I'm running illegal on the street Kaja....Thx for the help Budgie and Vithy... Shame the white line  people took the sway bar out of stock...  ???
