Who told you that you needed compatible control arm bushings?

The upper control arm bushings don't come in contact with coil overs. Therefore any bushing will be compatible. Not sure what you are looking for as specs are concerned?



Are you sure you're not looking for an upper control arm with adjustable camber?

Might want to change your search and look for camber kits for 90-97 Accords.

The guy who installed the coilovers said stock bushings wouldn't work, but he may be stupid. I've seen the car and its not low enough to need the camber adjusted. Thank you for your advice.

If it's not low enough to require camber adjustment, then I wouldn't imagine it needing anything more than stock bushings. Maybe he mentioned the bushings because they looked worn and needed to be replaced. If that is the case then I would stick to a stock rubber busing. Going with a poly bushing would work but not much sense in just going poly in one area of the suspension.
