Wait... we still talking about a Z car? There shouldn't be any "front" cv joints.

 

Yeah Still The Z, Then What Are Those Accordian Looking Rubber Things Near The Power Steering Pump???

 

Ah... they are tie rod boots for the steering rack.

 

OH OK, THANKS NISMOPICK. SEE YOU LEARN SOMETHING EVERYDAY.

WHAT IS REQUIRED IN REPLACING THEM?

 

Loosen the nut & knock the ends loose from the strut "nuckle." Then just slide off the old ones & slide on the new ones. If I remember correctly, Nissan either doesn't make them anymore, or are way overpriced. I just bought a universal set from AutoZone for $12. They required a lil cutting & zip ties to keep them in place, but they are in there snug now!

 

Ok thanks again. Also if noticed recently my windshield wipers dont work, they used to work just fine. Is it a fuse or loose connection possibly???

 

yeppers....

 

which connection?

 

I'm gunna say... the one connecting to windshield wiper motor... Didn't you say you had a manual for the car?

 

man i think nismo, is prob. getting a little grumpy...lol. I was wondering why isn't my window shield washers aren't working...burnt out pump...

 

eh... not grumpy... I just try to help people help themselves

 

all 3 of my z31s have the window washer problem--i had 2 out of 3 of them replaced about 1 year ago--now no workie---

 

yeah maybe its a zcar epidemic...lol. so for now i just took it out, said screw it, i just lost some weight...not to mentchion, all the rust on my car...i might get down to 2200 pds. before long, well if i take out the speaker box and amp.
