So i ordered a set of bolx lcas and i was wondering if anyone could tell me if the hole for the lower shock bolt has a nut welded on the other side like the factory lca does. I want to get new hardware for these but dont want to buy the wrong stuff. Thanks.

 

no it does not

 

Ok thanks, im guessing a grade 8 nut and bolt will do just fine then

 

i would just go to honda and get new lca bolts, cause trust me u will want them haha, i messed up a few of mine and had to run out while doing my suspension, it was a pain

 

Take his word for it, you always break one. Then you have new ones that are not rusty

 

yay for clean lca bolts

 

Thanks guys im definately gonna replace all of them. Ill see what they say at the dealership.

 

they arent too bad... i would get em off of majestic, but they might get you on shipping though

 

Thanks, yeah i have a friend who works at a honda dealership, he can usually get me his discount. I tried to do my suspension the other day but that one bolt was so frozen that i kinda rounded off the head. Id rather spend a little more for new lcas and hardware than try to drill it out and tap it. Bushings probably need to be replaced anyway. It seems like that bolt being siezed is a common thing.

 

I dread messing with the rear suspension every single time all because of them damn bolts.

LOL.

 

well use your hook up man cause thats a great thing to have right there. and yeah those bolts are tough

what bushings are u replacing?

yeah they suck no doubt

 

Just the ones on the lower control arms, from the picture it looks like the blox lcas have new bushings in them.

 

yeah your blox lcas will have new bushings, so u shouldnt need to replace control arm bushings, even though some ppl will tell u blox bushings are crap, i havent had issues with mine yet

 

Cool, well thanks for setting me in the right direction, hopefully things will go a little easier this time around.

 

they are pretty simple to do, its a matter of whether u "f" up the bolts or not

good luck man

 

Pb blaster and time is your friend when messing with those bolts.

Snapped every bolt but 1 on my friends da

I always here people saying horrible things about blox bushings, but at the same time i hear good things. I have noticed a trend though, People that have issues didnt preload them, i have seen people that preloaded have problems though.
