Default Rear Trailing Arm

I currently own a 95 Honda Del Sol Si 1.6L SOHC. Unfortunately, the trailing arm (rear right) is bend where the hub attaches and I was just going to buy a new one. That was until I realized every where I tried to get this part it's discontinued/not in stock. I currently have Disc on the rear of my Del Sol and have a lift and air tools so I don't mind swapping parts and hubs and etc around. I just want to know if all the Del Sol years and models/trims have the exact same trailing arm (disc - due to cable lengths) or not. I believe I can find some new 97 del sol trailing arms vs my 95. I'm also looking into 88-00 civics and 90-91 integra as well. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much and have a great day!

I found if you pull up the part number for your car off something like hondapartsnow.com and then slap it into google with one search term being "site:hondapartsnow.com" without quotes, it will provide you the hidden page that shows all the cars relevant to that part number.

The other option to get the same info is if you are in good standings with your dealership parts counter, they can provide you every car that uses the same part. This lets you have a variety of cars to look for in the u-pull it/salvage yards.

Right but can you confirm the del sol trailing arm is the same part number as the typical civics found? He has rear disc brakes so I tend to think if it is, it's only the SI, and then would it be coupe, hatch or sedan that has the same setup?

Now that I am home I did the trick and looked up the part for the 95 Del Sol Si, then used it as a search term with the site: search term and below are the results:

It looks like you will need to stick to the 92-95 civic Si to get the proper knuckle that will house the caliper for the rear disc brakes.

Thanks Tomcat39! I had been reading all over the forums how all 88-00 honda rear trailing arms weren't different and just the hub assembly was different. Then, I caught wind that the 94-95 Si models were slightly different in some way other than that. I believe I found a matching part from a salvage yard in Ohio for $20 and $20 shipping. I believe it was off a 94 del sol si disc w/o abs. So, for $40 I figured it was worth a shot. I'll just replace the bushing before I throw it on the car.
