92 Civic already has EVERY polyurethane bushing in it's suspension EXCEPT the rear compensator arm bushings and rear upper control arm bushings. I just discovered that my compensator arm bushing is turning (when turning the bolt).
Is it worth to replace rear compensator bushings w/poly ($49)? Or, should I just replace the compensator arm w/the one w/good bushings?
Is it worth to replace the rear upper control arm bushings w/poly ($101)?
The car is a daily driven (27k/year), it gets autoxed 6-7 times a year. Ride quality doesn't matter (there's any left ).
Will it make a difference in handling?
I'd appreciate any replies.

i'd say it does some good, not too noticable but every bit helps you know. i regret doing the front lower control arm which bolts to the frame. after prolonged driving, the limited bushing travel allowed the connecting bolt to cut the actual bolt hole, baaaad news because you cant get at the back (its surrounded by frame) so im gonna have to cut into it and reweld a nut for the bolt, just keep that in mind cuz it happened to another friend of mine

 

Could you explain this a little more? I have poly's up front too and don't quite understand what you mean.

Thanks.

 

afo3313,
I already have that problem. In the front susp., where LCA connects to the subframe the nut also broke off the welds. I had to open one of those small plastic plugs & fish there for 30 minutes w/my pinkey to finally get that nut on the threads. I don't even wanna think about what I have to go through when I have to replace those LCA bushings again.

Bump.
