Default Need help w/ Suspension (bushing) problem

I had a stripped bolt on my LCA, and to remove it, I had to cut it off...in the process, I sliced off aprox 1/8th in of the metalbushing...will it be ok if I use a washer to remedy this, or do I need to replace the bushing?

Dude... the suspension experts are all in the Competition forum .

I myself can't see it as being too much of a problem, but it'll probably squeak like a b*tch (metal on metal).

Just use a washer. It's gheto, but it should work. BTW, a new bushing from Manchester Honda will cost about $8. Any garage will be able to press it in.
