Default Gen 3 Omni LCA bushing replacement?

Since omni discontinued their LCA's, do other companies have bushings that fit them? I have the gen 3 lca's.

I'm assuming your talking about the rear LCAs, I got a set of BLOX LCAs for my ek, after a month of driving them the shock bushing seperated, I checked out how they were installed and found they were pressed in the aluminium with a set screw as a safety a guess, I was able to replace them with OEM Honda bushing by simply removing the set screw and pressing them out, after pressing the new OEM bushing in and centering it, re-installed the set screw and haven't had a problem since.

good luck

Mine use OEM-sized bushing sleeves. I've put Progress sphericals in them and Hardrace rubber bushings in them, as well as Honda bushings.
