I'll post up a pick tonight if you're still interested. I bought the MOOG today, and they are blue with a lifetime warranty. I'm tired of hearing metal squeak, as it rubs together, while I drive down the road. Mine were badly deteriorated when got my DX, so I used old bushings from a set of struts. Needless to say they lasted a dayOriginally Posted by b20a86lude

That's retarded, TRW is a sub-brand of Federal-Mogul, hence MOOG.
Carot, you find those in Canada yet? I'd like to see how they compare to the 2.0g Accord bushings.

looks good i replaced mine with poly bushings
1989 Honda Accord LX-i
B18c1 swap since 7/2011
175whp and 132tq
Redzone tuned
time for some new ones I think.
Bushing didn't seem to bad but the sleeve is what is worn out.

Looking at my picture and my new parts I think I have put them(the bushings) in backwards. There some confusion on my part. And the new ones are different thicknesses just to add to it. I may have them paired wrong.
Well part #7 and #8 are different numbers and they do look different in the picture. Interesting....never to old to learn anything.

Well I did have them mismatched. I had the thicker 2 on one side of the car and the thinner two on the other side of the car. Short version of the story is I set them up like this(picture) with new parts. The thicker bushing to the front of the car thinner to the inside of the frame. I'll get it dropped down and tightened back up hopefully some day soon.

Well replaced these and torqued to spec 32 ftlbs. Single new nylock nut.
Passenger side loosened up. I noticed about a month ago the wiggle feeling on shifting. I retorqued both to 40 ftlbs.
I'm going to go back to double nuts like I usually run.
Something to check when looking for a wander in the suspension.
