I was going to my local alignment work the other day, and the guy says that I need to replace my front LCA bushings. I asked him the costs and he told me that HONDA doesn't sell replacement LCA bushings for EK's. Is this true?
If not do you guys have the part #? I've tried to search on online parts stores and don't see any oem bushings for eks. They are offered on eg's though.

That is the front suspension..... are you talking about the rear suspension? On EKs, only the rear bolts directly into the control arm.

Edit:

I am refering to the front lower control arm. The shop told me that honda OEM bushings can't handle the stress from my Eibach Sportline springs. I said how much, and he says that he has to order the whole fricking front LCA I'm like WHAT??? I see that honda has replacements for EG"s but why not EK"S???
Money is an issue here
