Default energy suspension bushings... will eg lca's fit gsr lca's???

I have the hyperflex bushing set for the 92-95 civic. I know that the 94-01 gsr lcas fit the eg civic. Now will the bushings for the eg rear lca's fit the gsr lca's?

I noticed that the lower shock mounts will need to be pressed in, but the outer pivot bushings are alittle lose. like they will move around a little inside the gsr lca. is this normal or should all the bushings be snug?

And yes im using the corrent bushings for the lca's.

any help appreciated

your best bet would be to compare the part numbers and if they match you are good to go.

i did compare the set numbers. they are the same.

then why is their play with the pivot bushings? is this normal then. it wont have play after they are tightened down is my guess.

anyone with a teggy who instuled the es bushings, i need your input.

They should fit relitively tight?

When you say play. Do you mean they dont fit snug in the lca?

I believe some of the kits require that you leave the sleeve from the old bushings in the arms.

it says in the instructions to remove the bushing sleeve.

if i left the sleeve in their it would fit very tight but since i removed it, im gonna have to come up with something to take up that space.

it moves a little inside the control arm

They're different. I picked up the bushing set for my civic and the rear LCA bushings did not fit my Integra LCA. I ended up purchasing another LCA set for an Integra.

BTW, the ES part number for the Integra rear lower is 16.3107 and the civic is 16.3104.

However I did supposedly receive a rear Integra LCA from IAS but the integra bushing did NOT fit but the civic one did. I know the integra bushing fit in the integra lca I personally pulled.
