Heya

Aight I am totally against ghetto-ish mecanic. But I am stuck with closed parts store (and closed Honda dealer) and would like to know how much stress is on the compensator arm when the car is rolling ?

The stock compensator arm has its bushing dead. The one from the conversion I am installing come from a CRX and is 1 inch longer.

Could I just cut 1 inch out of the CRX compensator arm and weld it back in one piece ? At least I could roll the car out of the garage and this is what I need.

Thanks for helping me out

Pat who's waiting for an answer to cut and weld

 

For anyone wondering, compensator arm = #5

 

If you have the factory style bushing in the trailing arm, it would be safe to roll the car around with the compensator removed.

The trailing arm bushing will prevent a certain amount of side way movement.

Don't drive the car.

I'll roll the car as is.
