poste this in the normal civic section but figured it might be answered better here:

alright well i have a 95 del sol. i have a set of blox lower control arms on the car. well the other day i realized that one of the bushings in the lower control arm is "blown out". the pushing that the strut assembly bolts to if you want to know exactly. now i realize this could happen anytime but this is on 5 month old blox control arms. and i have searched and realized taht is not uncommon to have this happen especially since i am running full ksport coils. but the question and what i need help with is what should i do. Should i just get new rear lower control arms. or could i get away with just replacing the bushings with some polyurethane ones or some kind of other bushings. any help would be appreciated.

 

I just realized my Blox LCA bushings are shot also! I only had them for a month!

POS garbage. Good thing i got these for basically free. Next time spend more money on some Function7's or OmniPower

Think of it this way, cheap LCA's. Cheap quality.

 

yeah i agree its pretty much bull **** for them to go that fast but what are you gonna do

Well i might try contacting BLOX but i doubt that will help. So i'll see if some idiot buys them for like $50 bux and buy some F7's or OmniPower.

 

they will warranty them. i already talked to them about it. but the turn around takes awhile and by the time i pay shipping and **** for them i figured why not put poly bushings in so the new ones dont blow out in the same amount of time you know. but now i see everyone having issues with the poly so im skeptical

Oh really?! Will they send out bushings to you so you can replace them yourself? I hate sending stuff back, lol. I should've realized from the cheap price that this was a cheap quality piece. I'm just suprised that they went bad in a month! Put them on October 3rd and saw them shot about a week ago. So thats about 3 weeks of daily driving.

 

i doubt they will send bushing because they would prolly need proof that they were bad. but i dont want their bushings anyway when they go bad so fast
