alrite ive already priced out a urethane bushing kit but since i only want to change 3 bushings asap i was wondering if anyone has heard of those universal bushings you can get at any hardware store and if so is there is any chance of them fitting or modifying them to.


I know this is hack but ive been trying to certify my car all summer and just want to eFfing DRIVE for a month or two then i plan on doing the urethane swap.

any opinions wood be great

 

Ok, the specific bushigns you want to replace would help.

 

yaaaaaaaaa lol sorry

not sure of specific name but....... the car in a 1990 civic hatch dx

lower shock mount, lca(The side that bolts to the main "big" control arm), and the very small control arm nearest to the front.

lol sorry but im not sure on how to differentiate what a sway arm is or a control arm....ect

 

Say 'Hello' to your rear suspension!

6 = Compensator Arm
3 = Trailing Arm
4 = Lower Control Arm
1 (or 7) = Upper Control Arm
And now you know!
edit: I did not draw that lol. Its a pretty cool diagram though.

 

wow! THANK YOU LOL! ive been searching for something just like that thanks again


so now....... one in the compensator arm, lca, and the lower shock mount

hows that? now any opinions?

 

I don't think you'll find a bushing at a hardware store.

If ur in a rush, just go to a local honda dealership, and they should have them in stock. I just replaced some this week as well, and they weren't too expensive. Got hooked up for pressing them in, which was a bonus.

 

pressing them in? hmmmmm when i buy the urethane kit from energy will i have to get them pressed in?
