I have a 91 honda accord lx and I just replaced my rear struts with the kyb gr2's. My rear end is stiffer but it still bounces a little. I compared my car to my friends and his did not bounce like mine does. he has a 90 ex. Could this be that the rubber bushings are wore in the rear suspension??

 

weaker springs perhaps........does he also have the same struts as you?? KYB GR2S?? ,, different struts have different stiffness

I doubt if it is bushing related at all

 

My friend has the stock struts and springs. My springs seemed really stiff when I had them off. I live in wisconsin so any rubber parts get weatherd big time, thats why I asked about them. I also still hear a rattle in the back like its a bad strut but I changed them so what could that be? Does the upper control arm usually go bad or something?
