$200 total just for bushings. ugh, stupid.


EDIT: If I am getting a rear camber kit, do I need this kit? The two pieces that have flat pieces of metal w/ holes in them looks exactly the same as my Wicked Tuning rear camber kit. But I am guessing i'll need the other parts too.

I'm not sure if mine had bushings or solid steel in the camber kit... I wouldn't have spent money on poly bushings.... you still have to shell out money to get them pressed in... I can't think of many bushings that you can install be hand on the car...

Well the guy that is going to help me has installed quite a few suspensions before on Corvettes, Civics, and a few other cars. He said he has everything i'll need and a few other people will be helping us out! I pm'd him about the bushings so hopefully he'll have a way or a press.

As far as the bushings, they'll last for a LONG time and I plan on keeping my Accord forever so it will be a good investment. Also, when putting my 18's on today and changing my oil last week I really noticed that alot of the bushings are cracking pretty badly.

Yeah, the poly ones will last a long time if you care for them, be sure to lube them up good with marine grease? so they don't squeak.

Its like polygrease or something like that! I think I am going to see if I can get by w/o using the rear kit and then I can just return it.
