Icon5 1989 Honda Civic RT4WD. Is it compatible with LSD?

I have a 1989 Honda Civic RT4WD 1.6 Automatic. Is this compatible with my 1991 Honda Civic Wagon RT4WD rear INTRAC Limited Slip Differential?
Also where do I get the replacement bushings for each rear trailing arms, these rubber bushings are about the size of a motor mount.What is the part#? Thanks

I would recommend buying OEM trailing arm bushings. I typically use Majestic Honda to order parts from.

I don't think the INTRAC rear end will fit. The differential housing might swap. The INTRAC was more like a modern dual pump rear end. To use it you would need a shorter driveshaft and to remove the viscous coupler from the middle of the wagon driveshaft.

So for the 1991 Honda Civic Wagon RT4WD rear INTRAC Limited Slip Differential. Which Hondas are the easiest swaps to install on?

Anything is possible. That is just not a popular part being a very rare piece.
