Title: Energy Suspension Bushings
Post by: Rushzer0 on November 16, 2011, 10:35:08 PM
Not sure if this has been covered yet, I did a quick search and didn't find anything (mind you it was on tapatalk :p and the search function blows) Just wondering if anyone has thought about or tried measuring the bushings on our cars and matching them up to some of the universal bushings they sell (ie: sway-bar end links, control arm bushings, sway bar bushings etc...) or are the accords some weird shape? If this has been discussed before I apologize, just thought if it hasn't I was going to give it a shot since I can order them through work. Since it would be alot less expensive then the super pro bushings.

Edit: Also if someone has replaced any bushings with energy suspension units, could you please post up the part number you used :) thanks. It looks like we have a control arm in stock so I'm going to break out the digital caliper and do some measurements and post up my findings.

Doesn't seem worth all the effort it will take to replace those bushings.  I wouldn't replace those even if I had a press.

My control arm bushings shat the bed on me. From what I've been reading its a common problem, so my approach is if it breaks, why not upgrade. I was hoping to find a cheaper option then Superpro bushings, but that seems like a lost cause. Anybody have any other suggestions? Are upgrading the bushings not going to make a noticeable difference?
