Default EF trailing arm bushing the same as a DA?

Would my 89 Civic's trailing arm bushing be the same as a 90 Integra? I ordered some poly bushings a long time ago for an Integra since I have rear discs but the box says its for a Civic. But they are so similar I wonder if there is any difference.

According to Prothane they are different, but what brand did you buy? Do you have the part number of what you got?

Energy Suspension 167106G

Integra is something like 167107G. So pretty damn close.

Yeah I'm guessing that it is just something stupid and you can probably use them, but I can have one of my friend's check for sure if no one else answers by tomorrow.

What is a good place to get the prothane. I want to use the Integra ones because I don't want to burn away the bushings and find out the pin is 1mm too small or some crap and screw up my car which I need to drive. So I gotta make sure it works.

I know the Prothanes have the pin already in them, know a good site to get those at?

Honestly? When I had a set before they were stolen out of my car on New Year's Eve before I could put them in I got them from Nopi. But I am local so I just ran down and picked them up. Plus I have friends that work there, and I might have to go back and work there again because I can't find another choice.

Prothane was $114. You think they are worth it over the Energy? Or is putting the pin in no big deal?

Well, me personally I have the whole Prothane kit (except for the bushings we are talking about, ******* thieves) and I love them. The Prothane kit for the trailing arms comes with the pins, but they aren't in the bushings (at least mine weren't). It isn't a big deal pushing them in, but I don't know if you can do it in a parking lot like you did with your swap.
