Ok, now that this thread is in the proper forum, i suggest you go for the OEM trailing arm bushings. Bakit mo naman titipirin ito eh bihira naman masira?

Hindi naman fatal pag hindi pinalitan, yun lang nga, very irritating kasi may "tug" sa sound every time may humps or lubak

Hindi naman ganung kamahal yung OEM, para tipirin mo pa. Meron din Polyurethane bushings, but kung namamahalan ka sa OEM, you can forget these coz theyre even more expensive.

Nakapagtanong narin ako sa mga mekaniko, talagang SIRAIN daw yung OEM na trailing arm (esp HONDA), advise nya mas maganda daw fafabricate yan, mas matagal masira and mas cheaper daw...

punta ka sa hcp forum, may ongoing discussion dun on fabricated trailing arm bushings...

di fatal yan, annoying lang... yung sa akin dati halos 1 yr bago ko pinalitan.

Sheesh! ang hina naman pala nung bushing ng Honda?! 1 year lang?! Gawsh!

1 year lang ba tumatagal yun? 1996 model pa ang sasakyan ko pero buhay pa naman ang bushings. hehehe.
