exhaust hanger bushings
1994 civic ex coupe
2 1/2 catback custom
Noticed today that my exhaust has a little more play then I like,(wobbles) and that my exhaust hanger bushings are pretty old and still the original bushings. So, why not replace them.
What brand should I replace them with? I believe I have a total of 4 and are they all the same size?
I heard the hard rubber Cusco bushings are really good, or should I stick with OEM or any other brand recommended?

This site is just a reference and can probably get them cheaper.

OEM or find them at a junkyard or parts store. I usually go junkyard hopping at pull a part, enter for 2 dollars collect all the 10mm bolts I can hold and junk no one thinks of like harness plugs that still look good with no corossion, stuff like that.

Re: exhaust hanger bushings
Ok, I'm leaning towards oem since they've lasted this long already. The only thing that I question is the weight of the exhaust vs stock exhaust piping causing premature wear and more slack compared to the hard rubber.
I have 4 that I can remember, 2 holding by shifter, and 2 where the muffler is at. Are they all the same size from factory? I'm getting mixed answers on that.
Thanks guys.

Re: exhaust hanger bushings
my 20 year old ones are holding a 3'' K-teller and they haven't ripped yet the weight difference isn't worth noting. the rears are a bit smaller but not that it'll make a difference.

Re: exhaust hanger bushings
^^ That's the reason I want to stick with oem. The only reason I'm considering Cusco is because of how sturdy they are compared to soft rubber. I just don't want the exhaust to wobble or move. I might just buy both and compare since they're not that much.
