Default Rear compensator arm replacements

Trying to do a rear disc conversion on an ef hatch with DA trailing arms. The suspension in it front and rear was totally roached. So in order to remove the rear compensator arms, I had to cut one out and the other got fairly messed up. I bought prothane compensator arms for an integra, figuring they'd be the same. Come to find out they are about an inch shorter than the ef ones. Fully maxed out on toe, they still will not reach the trailing arm. Honda parts online has discontinued the stock compensator arms. Is their any other source I can get some? OEM or after market? Or am I screwed here? Finding one of these in a junkyard is easy, but being in the Midwest, fighting rust is inevitable.

I don't get it. I just did a search for a rear compensator arm and there's plenty of OE replacement parts available from dozens of retailers.

Did a quick google search and didn't see anything except for people on forums having issues with them. Thanks for the link. Will try those.

did you try car-part.com ? Its nation wide. Just buy the stuff in a location out of the rust belt. Have them mail it to you. Been there, done that. Highly doubtful you will get a minnesota part from a car on oregon.
