Caster Rods Fit 2 & 4 Door?

[Ericjayrol]

Hi,

I need to get a caster rod for my R34 sedan and I was wondering if there are different ones for the 2 doors and the 4 doors or if i just buy ones suited for an R34 then it will fit.

Thanks =)

No difference.

are you just replacing your stock ones? instead of buying another set of 2nds, perhaps just press new bushes in them...I found that to be more economical, as the stock ones are liquid filled and used ones might just leak again and go all clunky.

This is the one place on a car where I will wholeheartedly recommend aftermarket rods with rose joints on the end (rather than original bushes or even polyurethane). No real NVH penalty and about 1000% better stiffness/location. Only problem is the lack of roadworthiness.

Thanks for the info guys.

My mechanic reckoned that since I just had the rocker cover gasket done and the rod has a fair bit of oil dried up on it that I should replace the whole rod rather than just the bushes.

Rose joints on the end eh? I'll look into that, although roadworthiness is pretty important, it's a very stock standard and clean car and I like to keep my vehicles that way; I know, I hardly fit in with the usual skyline owners

Why would replace the whole rod? bushes are so easy to press in, I did mine with a vice.
