Front lower shock bolt doesnt line up, new subframe, and energy bushings
I have a 00 civic si. I just replaced the subframe in the car, with a brand new one from honda, and i also just installed energy suspension bushing from honda. Everyhing was going smooth till went to install my shocks, and the wishbone bolt doesnt line up. It is about a 1/8 on one side, and a 1/4" on the other side to high to go through the lower shock wish bone. I have all subframe bolts loost sliding it around, the upper shock bolts, and i cannot get anything to work. This car was never in a accident and the old subrame was not physiclly dammaged. Anyone have any ideas of what could be wronge. I am about to try and get ahold of some no SI control arms and install them incase the got bent from install the bushings... but i dont think i put to much for into them. Thanks for any input. also the coilovers are in good shape.... and arent bent
