I got my new lower bushing from Honda. I had to get them for the 86 and for the 88 and I know they can get them. I wish I kept the part number but it's kind of hard to find on their diagram.

It's part number 14 on the very bottom. Hondaautomotiveparts.com has it for $12 which is about what I paid.

If part number 14 is what you need and it matches KYB part number SM5059, which is a lower strut mount bushing. I found the part in it's box. Let me know it that's it. I can prority mail it to you, I'd like it if you could put $5 in my pay pal account to cover the postage.
[email protected] is my pay pal account

:confused: i dont think thats it, the thing im talking about is for the back struts, is keeps the strut from coming up out of the mouting hole, it lke a round rubber thingy, if someone can post up a diagram of the rear suspention ill show you

#14 is a round rubber thing with a piece of metal tube in the middle to keep the bolt from ripping up the rubber. It's actually in the rear-knuckle brake drum catagory instead of "rear shock absorber" or the "lower arm" category which is what makes it kind of confusing. The only other thing you might be refering to could be #14 in the pic below which is the spring seat but I don't see how the mechanic could make one out of a bumpstop.

Oh great, I used to have a pair of kyb mount kits that did have them, but I did looked for them, but can't find them, only the one I mentioned.
