polyurathane bushings??

[sleeper87si]

i was looking around ebay the other day and came upon a polyurathane bushing kit for the suspension of my 87 crx si. i hav a small idea of what this kit can do but i am not sure. what are the benifits of this an were do u install it

They should help especially for cornering. They are used on your sway bar and lower control arm. Maybe somewhere else? Once I get my SI running well I am going to replace the old OEM rubber ones.

This kit replaces all the rubber bushings in your suspension system. I installed a kit in my CRX and it seemes to tighten things up a little bit, and all my old suspension squeaks were gone.

Replacing the front was pretty straight forward, but the rear was a PITA! I ended up using a torch to burn the old rubber bushings out of the trailing arms. Others have drilled and pried the rear bushings out, but lighting them on fire is way more fun!

polyurathane bushings > new rubber bushings > 18 year old rubber bushings

should make a big improvement on handling, tightens up suspension

they install wherever two suspension parts come together or mount to the frame (i.e. T/C rods, sway bars, control arms, etc.)
remember to grease them liberaly or they will squeak like a bitch

you will definitly notice a difference in cornering.

I had a poyurtheane bushing kit on my 89 crx and I really felt a difference in the handling and the lauch on the car....the instillation was pretty simple and straight foward.... just be sure to go straight to the torch instead of screwing around with trying to pry them out and use alot of the lube that comes with it
