Anyone use the Energy suspension Bushing kits?
I been thinking about using them only becuase my stock ones in the rear are ----.
Im wondering if they are all the same, civic/acura ones. I only ask cause the rear trailing arms are from a 92 GSR with ABS. However i dont think it should be different.
here is a pic
im thinking bout purchasing them from summit and i thinkg Jegs has em too. Ill see who has em cheaper.
DO any of you have em? how do you like em?

Re:Anyone use the Energy suspension Bushing kits?
Are you just wanting the rear trailing arms, or the whole master kit?
I ask because if you are getting the master kit it does not include the rear trailing are bushings, just control arms.
If you are just getting the trailing arm bushing, order the rear trailing arm bushing from the GSR.
If you are using the lower control arms from the GSR they are probably different. I have 91 Interga disc with the lower control arms and they use a larger bushing. I ended up buying just the rear set As well as the qhole master set from my 90 hatch. I just window welded the ones on my trailing arms just like you do to motor mounts.

( KY is your friend) and as far as a press..you dont need it..just get a big *** washer and some patience. I have a hondatuning article that shows you how to do it. i have to find it and scan it!
