Rear Control Arm Bush

Post by Ailfenergy » Tue Jun 05, 2012 12:00 pm

Is it possible to get this bush somewhere without buying the whole control arm?

I've found 2 control arms on eBay, but I'm not really happy with the delivery price.

Any suggestions?

You could polybush it? It would be cheap.

I think the 4th gen bush fits and you can get that from Honda for about £30.

If it's one of the press fit ones... I got my front's done at the dealership for 1/4 hr's labour. I'm glad I did coz they ruined one of the new ones pressing it in so they replaced it and had another go for no extra charge. Well worth it.

I did this on my 5G (used 4G parts). You'll probably need to replace the bolts, nuts, and plate while your at it ;)
