okay so you must first jack up your car and put it securely on jack stands as you can see here :)

next only after making sure it is really secure crawl under that bitch so you can see everything nice and clear.

there is a rectangular bushing here, remove it like such and retain for future reference, and the sleeves.

next, make sure you have a clean work surface and also someplace where you can concentrate on the task at hand.

be very careful when you remove your old sleeves from the bushing, you might hurt yourself. lube up your new bushing and push in the sleeve.

there is another bushing you get with this kit but I was too pissed to bother documenting. I crawled under the front and I have a ripped CV boot, not a drop of grease in it.

The other bushing is just as simple tho ;)

if I had some smaller exhaust tubing that would have been easier.

Nice write-up. I'm not sure how well it was "documented", but the clean work area with the concentration spot is just genious. :D ;)

I was freaked when I did that with two jackstands!!!...and When the creeper went back to the shifter my nose was on the exhaust pipe!

Come on man, some Cheezy jackstands at schucks (Kragen for you Cali people) are only like 20$ and the'll keep your name from being changed to flatcivic

Heck do that again and Ill send you a pair myself

I'd use drive up ramps for that work, in fact, that's what I did when I put my bushings and short shifter in.

I usually just have the neighborhood kids hold my car up while I work under there, you just have to make sure it's not near snack time or nap time, they'll drop that ---- on you.

did you make that little kid take all the pictuers? I need to train a little kid to do that for me so I can get more picture of myself on here.

You have to put in that other bushing to feel the full effect of that kit. man and please use jack stands or something, those stock jacks suck balls. i dont want to read a post about how your ass got turned into a taco underneath a freakin civic. :P

slowcivic 05-09-2004 03:50 PM

Re:energy suspension shifter bushing install pics *56k prolly not.......
 
i already put the other one in I just didn't take any pics. it feels grrrrreat!

really? can you notice a difference? i may have to get one and see. as far as the jack stands, ---- dat! i've personally seen those thing give out before while my boy was changing a tire (what they're intended for), i can't imagine if he was using it to work under his car :'(

we use those siccor jacks to get the car up a few inches to get the real jack under it. Man your brave.

I have balls of steel my friend. That and I don't give a ----. BTW, my son was no where near this vehicle at anytime.I just snapped a pic of his nap when I came in the house. he's not that good with my cam anywayz :P

Who will have balls of steel when your son doesn't have a dad because you were to lazy to use 20 dollar jack stands.
