Icon2 Trailing arm bushing hunt

Well... i bought a 88 civic dx that came with rear disks on it. I am currently working on suspension and am trying to repalce the completely trashed trailing arm bushings that it came with. Well after lots of visits to diffrent auto parts stores I have managed to come up with the same trailing arm bushing that is slightly to small for the hole it came out of. I have done lots of research and im trying to figure out what car this came off of. I'm at the point of buying knew trailing arms and disks ....Someone please help!!!!

because youre getting the wrong ones from the part store.

get the right DA ones from the dealer, or shove the smaller bushing in the old DA one after you cleaned it all out.
