I bought a different 2001 Pathfinder with the Death Wobble. Instantly I knew the issues as I had replace the trailing arm bushings on my old Pathfinder. This video shows you what is the problem, and my solution is to replace the bushing with Polyurethane, off-road bushings.
I often pull a heavy trailer, so the Moog replacement rubber bushings do not last more than three months. The original Nissan rubber bushings are just as lame.
I bought these polyurethane bushings off eBay from a USA supplier, total delivered cost to Canada was $150 C, including shipping, which took just eleven days.

Update: September 2023, both upper control arms and both rear springs collapsed on my original 2001 Pathfinder. I will post another video shortly. I ordered a rear suspension kit, including both upper and lower trailing arms, with rubber bushings, for both sides and a new set of springs and shocks. The install should happen September 22 /2023.
