Default 2001 Pathfinder wobble from side to side

I need help. I need to order either bushings or the entire rear trailing arm assembly for my daughters car. If I get just bushings, how many should I order? .If I order the assembly, is it just one? Any and all advice would be appreciated.

4 bushings for the lower links, and if you can replace the 4 bushings for the upper links as well.

Bushings are a real pain to replace. Personally, I recommend getting Dorman complete links from Rockauto.com, two uppers and two lowers; they are listed under "trailing arms." They have a lifetime warranty. Also, a lot of times the bolts will rust and seize to the sleeves inside of the bushings, requiring them to be cut out using a Sawzall. So, I would also recommend getting brand new bolts from Nissan. Make sure you don't torque the bolts until the vehicle is on the ground with the weight of the vehicle on the suspension.
