lca's always snap every honda ive had and i went to change shocks n springs on snapped. my hatch is down right now cuz the bolts were seized in the bushings. so i have to wait till weds. to get new lca's to mount to my new shox and put it back together. its way pointless to me to drill out the bolt and try to re tap it so im just saving the energy and ordered new blox lca's. but i feel yah bro. suspension bolts on hondas are like 70% braking chance. they suck!!!
for the bushing or the bolt?So where do you buy replacements other than honda? Honda here where I live wants like $18 each for them plus tax.
He's referring to the bushing. I guess you could always go aftermarket. You could get energy suspension bushings from www.summitracing.com, although they're a pain to install.
i just got mine torched today. i'm happy because now i can do whatever i want with my suspension and stop worrying about everything.
bolts are $9.25. it's pricey but not as pricey as $18.So where do you buy replacements other than honda? Honda here where I live wants like $18 each for them plus tax.
for anyone looking to replace bushings, i'd recommend just getting skunk LCA's or some that already come with poly bushings installed.

I was looking for the bolts. I have new LCAs, but since 99.9% of ever 92-95 (I have 94) Civic has seized bolts, I was going to just replace them need it or not, bot I am banking on needing them. So to avoid the headaches, I wanted the bolts on hand. I can't believe a google or ebay searvh for "civic lca bolt" doesn't turn up a plethora of aftermarket options. Hell, I would be happy with one option.
