i just did the conversion and this bushing is not good




..... can it be changed

 

of course. I went to honda and got the bushing for like $60 bucks each.

You just need to press them out and put the new ones in.

 

well i put a 2000 integra rear disk conversion .... what do they call this bushing

 

is it called the trailling arm bushing

got the same issue.... i did a search and a whole thread showed up.... matco sells the tool to remove/install the trail arm bushing without removing the arm... good luck i still have do mine, but dont want to spend the loot for the tool.... i might just use my air hammer...

 

Tool = 180$ new, saves the use of the press.
Bushing = 25$ per side

 

y not rent the tool from autozone?

 

Autozone doesnt have the right tool for rent.

Napa autoparts store/machine shop charged me $20 to remove and press in new ones


Save yourself from trying to take them on or off the car its a PITA...just take off the trailing arms and take it to your local machine shop

 

If you have the trailing arms taken off, removing the old bushings is VERY easy. You just hit them with a hammer. It's a taper fit, which means that its not like a normal press fit. Once you break the friction of the taper fit, they just pop out.

Same with installing new ones...just hammer on the edge of the bushing until it's seated.

 

wait, correct me if i'm wrong...dc2 teggy's disk brakes would not fit on an ef

You are wrong. DC2 ('94-'01) Teggy rear discs bolt right up.

You would need to use DA knuckles and swap the DC2 brake hardware on them. I did this on my CRX and I love the results!

 

Do the DC2's have bigger calipers? From what i could find the rotors are the same size.

 

would a bad trailing arm bushin give you positive camber ...

Bigger calipers as opposed to what?

 

The DA calipers. Just trying to figure out the benefit of having DA knuckles with DC2 hardware.
