Icon5 HardRace bushings in Skunk2 front Upper Control Arms?

I have a '00 Honda Civic EX with skunk2 pro series upper control arms. I was curious if it is possible if I could put HardRace's front upper control arm bushings into the Skunk2 Pro Series front upper control arm camber kit? Skunk2 says their bushing size for the arms are proprietary, but I think they are just trying to make a buck. It's cheaper to go with HardRace and probably lasts longer too.

Bunch of bull. Even sphericals are the same between OEM and Junk2 arms as long as you don't have the Pro series arms. I put Energy Suspension bushings in Junk2 arms without a problem. **** their pro series arms with **** polyurethane.

Thank you! someone finally responded... Yeah I have the pro series arms with their rubber bushings (not poly), but they look exactly like oem size. Looks like I'll be going with Hardrace.

I just wanted to confirm that regular OEM style bushings WILL fit in the Skunk2 tuner or Pro Series front upper control arms with their rubber bushings. Their poly bushings are, however, proprietary.

I successfully installed HardRace branded OEM style replacement bushings (P/N: 6121) in my Skunk2 pro series arms.
