Okay im finally doing the suspension on the accord while the engine is apart, everything is going good except the rear shock mount bushings in the knuckles are shot, so i chisled them out no prob, but what can i get to replace them? I know i could go oem honda but what else do we have? Ive seen legend masters thread about his but the kit costs $100 which is a waste for just the 2 bushings we can use from it, does anybody have any poly bushings thatll fit? What about aftermarket non honda, any decent bushings out there? Help me suspension masters!!

BTW: The suspension is revalved bilsteins on weapon R circuit pro coilovers, 500lb/in front, 375 lb/in rear (yes i know its stiff, i need it for racing), poly radius rod bushings, poly front swaybar bushings, i may go with camber kits but i dont feel the need to drop it very much, maybe 1.5" not sure yet

Edit: This entire setup soo far has cost me less than $400

good thing you have the coilovers so you can raise your car up to make room for tires. :)

I would go with OEM bushings. When i did my rear disc swap i replace mine with OEM ones and no problems. I do however have a stock suspension setup, but they should be fine. My 2 cents.

If the springs are the same height put the front springs on the REAR. That would help stick the nose on launches.
