honda civic 97 trailing arm

[andrewbugs]

Gurus, question re. trailing arm of my honda civic. damaged na ang bushing sa trailing arm. assembly ba ito or the bushing can be replaced? pwede DIY lang?

It's the bushing inside the trailing arm assembly (circular shape black colored). I had mine replaced a few years back. Better have it replaced at your trusted repair shop.

dami nyan sa auto supply. make sure to get the oem or better yet get from honda mismo tapos pakabit mo sa labas. it cannot be done DIY not unless you have a machine press at home.

pinaka maganda talaga ang OEM.. kaso masyadong mahal. Yung replacement medyo mura. dami nyan sa mga shops sa banawe. Di mo kayang i DIY yan.. dahil need mo ng machine shop. Pero ginawa ko dati sakin, ako ng nagbaklas tapos dinala ko sa machine shop. siningil lang ako ng 150 pesos for 2 press-out & press-in job.

madali masira ang OEM at replacement. pinagawa ko yung sa akin years ago, customized galing sa mga gulong ng truck until now 5 years na ayos pa din.

Yep pwede rin ito.

The only downside is harder bushings tend to negatively impact ride quality. Aside from the springs, the bushings are the most important contributor to ride quality. Harder bushings firm up the ride for better handling.

FYI lang.
