This Genuine Nissan lower control arm pivot bolt is a critical high-tensile fastener for the Nissan Navara D22 4WD. It is located at the rear mounting point of the front lower control arm, securing the arm to the vehicle's chassis and acting as a primary pivot for the front suspension. This specific bolt features a thicker thread than the bolts used on earlier D22 models and 2WD YD25 variants, making correct vehicle identification crucial.
Over time, the original bolt can become seized, stretched, or heavily corroded, making it unsafe to reuse, particularly during suspension work like replacing control arms or bushings. Failure to replace a compromised bolt can lead to suspension clunks, incorrect wheel alignment, and vague steering. Installing a new genuine bolt is the only way to ensure the correct torque specification is achieved, restoring the safety and integrity of your vehicle's front suspension. Two of these bolts are required per vehicle, sold individually.
Installation is a moderate workshop job that requires safely lifting the vehicle and using the correct tools to service suspension components. Applying the correct torque with a tension wrench is absolutely critical for safety. This bolt is most commonly replaced when installing a new lower control arm or replacing the control arm bushings. You will require two bolts to service both the left-hand and right-hand sides of the vehicle.
