Default EK LCA BUSHINGS?? WTF!!!! HELP WTF DO I DO?

Ok ive got the **** all pulled apart. Go to order the new bushings since honda doesnt use antiseize from the factory and all the bolts freeze up and suck. But thats beside the point

so i look. SWEET the bushing i need isnt available. The only one i can get are the ones the strut passes through. The other 2 (trailing arm connection and chassis connection points) are only sold with the whole lca new from the dealer. Well thats 60 bucks each. making it 130 dollars. 130 dollar job just cause 2 bushings are bad? wtf

DOES ANYONE MAKE LCA BUSHINGS FOR EK? i dont give a damn about the shock bolt point, i need to replace the trailing arm connection point bushing in the lca.

Sorry to seem *******. This **** has just pissed me off to the fullest.

if you look there, you can see bushing 13 is the only one replaceable. The other ones you need part 4 to get them.

I would say get the Mugen set,but they cost more for just the bushings than a whole new LCA from Honda.

Yea. a whole lca from honda is 60 dollars. i need 2 lcas also.

130. then they dont come with the strut bushing. so thats 20 for both. we are at 150.

i got spc lca for 30 bucks more. shipped to my door and reliably sent.

Im sure theres mass "i could haves" but in the past all ive ended up with when i do the i could haves, is "oh my bad dude, i only had 1 lca it turns out, its gonna be another month".

I cant wait anylonger. the car is my sole method of transportation. so i ordered them rush delivery from NOPI.

haha, nopi customer. does that make me a riceboy?
haha

Actually, Honda does sell the trailing arm bushing. It just doesn't show it on the parts fiche. Go to a different dealer cause the one you are dealing with does not know what the f#$%$%ck they are doing. There was a bulletin sent out a couple of years ago with a part number for that bushing.

Do a search here and I am sure you will find it.
