Prelude upper arm bushings

[SteveDX89]

I have the Prelude arms on my car and I think my bushings are shot. I'm gonna take care of it when I do my suspension work. My question is do you just replace the bushings or do you replace all the other seals and shit like the Accord arms? Where can I find the whole kit if I need it?

Beck Arnyey makes a kit. It should work on both the prelude arms and the accord arms.The Beck/Arnley part number is 101-4168. The kit includes the upper arm collar, upper arm nut and bolt, upper arm bushing, upper arm bushing seal, housing seal, and the anchor bolt seals. Price is about 45-50 bucks. That part number will cross at parts america and advance auto I don't think autozne lists it but they may be able to get it (I hate autozoned BTW) Heres a link off AdvanceAuto/Parts America's site Beck/Arnley 1014168

The Prelude arms are narrower so won't the collar stick out too far?

Edit - I'm not seeing the that part listed with the Prelude.

Just to update the info here. The beck/arnley kit is listed under 86-89 accord and can be used with the prelude arms as stated in the updated how to

You'll have to enlarge the hole in the "caps" to fit the rod through. That's if you use the rod that the rebuild kit came with. I guess you could reuse the Prelude one but I was dumb at the time and didnt.
