Which bushings wear the most?
Which bushings typically wear the most in Honda double-wishbone suspensions..which make the largest difference when replaced in an older car?

Probably any of the load-bearing lower control arm bushings, as well as the big trailing arm bushings.
Don't use polyurethane, though, unless you want to change them out all over again in just a couple of years. Stick with OEM rubber or OE replacements.

Re: (PatrickGSR94)
im going to agree with patrick. the LCA bushings get the worst of it.
also, the rear upper arm, especially the inner dogbone bushing gets a lot of abuse because of its configuration and the angle of the short control arm.
but really, any and all bushings can go bad.
im guessing you drive a prelude? i dunno anytihng about preludes, but there might even be prelude specific bushings that need more attention too.
just gotta check each out.
