Hotchkis 22443 for QX50?

Hello to everyone,

New owner here. Just bought 2017 infiniti qx50 and i know this is G37 forum, but since qx50/ex forum/community pretty much not existing I will be coming for help here.

Since g37 basically same car, i was doing some research i found that Qx50 awd
shares same rear sway bar but the front is different.
Anybody knows what exactly different?
Question number two is: where to get Sway bar 22443 for a rear. They are selling fronts & rears together, or just a single rear sway for rwd model....

Thanks

Could check the classified listings here or post a WTB (Want To Buy) and get responses from potential sellers.

I have Hotchkis and enjoy them very much.

Hang in there on getting replies. A few have our routines and get to the new posts when we can. Lots of info on here so the search tool helps alot.

Will you be posting a build thread here too? Happy moddiing~

I would "guess" the QX50 front bar, if it is indeed different, is smaller in diameter than the G37/Q50 as their roles/intentions are different.

Here's a link with various sway bar diameters (mostly aftermarket).
Sway Bar Diameters - Nissan 370Z Forum

I have a QX70 Sport as well as a G37IPL but I've not measured the QX's swaybars. I do need to change the oil so maybe I could grab a set of calipers and measure but they're most likely different in diameter as the 70 is heavier/taller and mine is a RWD, not AWD.

As far as getting a single bar, I know Amazon was selling them separately for the RWD version. I'd contact Hotchkins directly or see if you can cross compare with any aftermarket vendors who make bars for the QX50 to see if there's a difference between it and the G37 bars.

I guess, just gonna grab 22443 and see whats up. Like i said, people at Hotchkis no help at all. Gave them specific question and they did not come back to me. They responded to the first email... They said, it will not fit ... and i say it should

Anyway if someone could get me dims, would highly appreciate it.

Thanks

alright, received sways today and just came back from my garage.
While doing front did first oil change it is so nice to work on NEW car.

Anyways there was no issues with front sway, Hotchkis is only 1mm fatter compared to oem.
However there is slight problem with rear one, it is touching splash guards (sway it self and a nipple)
It is strange because qx50 and g37 shares same rear sway bar...
picture attached.
