Any suggestions for replacing the bushings on BLOX lca? Just got some for cheap and i wanna install good bushings before i do the install. I keep hearing that the bushings are super shitty on these BLOX LCAs. Any input is greatly appreciated.

 

OEM LCAs are a good replacement for Blox LCAs. Don't mean to be a smartass, but seriously. You can't polish a turd.

 

 

I dont think you can install aftermarket bushings (example: energy suspension) into Blox LCAs. I had Blox LCAs in my 99 Civic, first set of bushings died within 6 months, ordered replacements from Blox, and those died within 4 months. I have had Skunk2's for the past year and they are holding up great.

 

I've had my oem bushing in my 99 dx coupe since 99 and they still are in good shape.. I'm just saying lol..

 

if you cant afford function7 LCA's then you should stick to stock LCAs

 

I would trust PIC lcas at a steal for $110.

PIC makes kickass bushings so I'd assume they have solid bushings in their LCAs. The bushings are what really matter, since it's not that complicated to make a piece of machined aluminum.

 

You can, however they must be trimmed. Only ES will work for this, due to the fact it needs to be trimmed.
You can't trim OEM bushings to fit.

That is another reason why people dont like blox, or they're products.

They admit there bushings fail, and begin to sale replacements, but they fail just as quick as the first set.

Skunk2 has had issues in the past, but the new bushings are said to be much better than pervous ones.

As libertariat said it's not difficult to make a machined peice of alluminum, but, on the 92-95 civics, as well as 94-01 integra's, the sway bar holes are in the incorrect spot on the blox control arms.
Does this sound like a quality setup to anyone?

It really comes down to F7, PIC, OEM, and OEM with ES bushings. I'll skunk2 in on the end of the list, simply beucase the more I look, the more postive things I see on people using the newest bushings. But, I will still always reccomend the first 4 before skunk2 ever comes out of my mouth
