Holy friggin crap, i will never do this again. I'd rather pay someone than deal with this hassle. I got a full ES kit for my 91 hatch. Now putting in the new ones isn't hard, it's the removal of the old ones. Like getting the LCA's off the car. Had to cut all 4 of those mf'ers off. And screw getting replacement bolts and nuts from Honda, i'm getting all stainless steel bolts and screws, i'm not going through this crap again. Oh yeah and i'm only half way done, can't wait to do the rest ( incredible amounts of sarcasm). Just thought i'd share my frustration.

 

the main reason why i put ANTI-SEIZE on every bolt i take off my car.

 

Haha, me too. I've got a ton of it, and yes i also use it on EVERY bolt or nut.

 

Ive said this ten+ times, you MUST soak the bolts in a lubricant, then have the lca's bushings pressed out...easiest way.

</TD></TR></TABLE> Ok i'm not a noob, i am well aware of what to do. I've been doing engine work and things of that nature of years. I'm just stating that's it's one of my LEAST favorite things to do. Oh yeah and i'm cheap, so i'm not paying someone 10 bucks or so the press out something i can cut out in a few extra minutes.
