Anyone have any recent feedback on the rear trailing arm spherical bearings for the civic/integra? Read some past threads but looking for recent reviews. Anything on the Blox or PCI would be great. Currently have an aftermarket (don't recall the brand) that needs to be replaced and was considering a spherical bearing kit.

The car is not a daily driver.

 

No one has had ANY experience with this sort of setup? Does anyone know if it's a much harsher/stiffer ride compared to the Prothane or Energy Suspension bushings for the street. I'm assuming it would be but just want someone whose had first hand experience with it.

 

yes they are harsher than energy bushings.

i would not run them on the street

 

They will be harsher, and louder then a normal bushing. I have ridden/drove a car with (i forgot what brand) sphericals in the trailing arm.

You deffinetly know they are are there, and you will deffinetly feel a difference.

I think they are PCI, I will call my buddy and find out for sure.

What bushings do you currently have?

I've got blox endlinks, and I will say I wont buy them again.

 

Not only will they be harsher but they'll wear out in a matter of weeks/months of daily driving.

 

i ran spherical bushings on the front and all of the bushings in the back.
i have the full hardrace spherical kit in the back and spherical front lca arm bushings.

the car was daily driven for over 4 years and saw track use.
only time the started making noise was when it was below 30deg after 4 years of use.

i sold the car last year and the new owner still have them on.

yes the car gets alot louder. ride is more harsh. but the feedback is amazing.

 

Not sure what brand I have. Bought them like 10 years ago. Thought they were Prothane but look nothing like whats currently out there.

Was considering getting the BLOX, but second guessing myself with some of the feedback I'm getting.

 

Oh, they are poly?

Blox isn't terrible, but you can do better, sometimes without spending more than a couple bucks more.

Example my endlinks were $36 a set, I could have gotten F7 for $49.

I have read great things about PCI, deffinetly worth taking a look at.

 

I just searched and found out that the bushings I have on my car look very similar to the Noltech ones. Except mine are not blue. I'll have to see if mine need replacing or not. The shaft has a little play in them but not much. I'll have to have someone look at them.


Thanks for all the input everyone!
