Love how you're so in depth and actually do shit correctly. Clearly you like removing bushings, I'm lazy and just get new control arms haha. Nice to see a car enthusiast youtuber who isn't a fucking idiot. My kinda people. I just bought a 2011 Si, (k20a3) thats how i found ur channel.
Nice found this on the S2K talk and tech group. This is def something I want to do. Just replace all of it because I have finally got to 100K miles and I'm paranoid my front suspension will fall apart while out. Saw it happen to a mustang backing out one day at work and it was horrible front passenger side was just on the ground.
great vid.. I need to replace my caster bolts as well. spun out at thunderhill one time and couldn't get my alignment dialed in afterwards.. so im thinking that maybe overhauling that would help.
what boots did you use to rebuild your tie rod ends? I need to do that to my ball joints and tie rods. they are good but boots are tearing now. love how your doing everything!
How is the ride quality with the hardrace bushings all around compared to OEM? I was considering doing either Hardrace rubber or Spoon Rubber bushings all around in my suspension arms. The oem rubber is cracked in some places on my car, so I wanted to do a refresh.
Hey there NAUS, very good videos ! I have just purchased this very same bushings from HARDRACE, what do you think of them vs stock ? I imainge ride quality remains pretty much the same and a bit of improved steering precision. If you could give me some feedback I would appreciate it ;)
You just about nailed it, I’m not sure how much harder they are compared to oem. But they feel great! Just finally doing the rears this year. Video of the rears will be up soon!
@@NAUS2K Great, I'll also give you a feedback when I install them. I feel the rear of my 2002 AP1 quite saggy before going off the limits and star going sideways. I wonder if these in the rear will firm up that saggy sensation as if I had a tyre with a really soft sidewall. Thanks for the reply ;)
Jesus, after watching the struggle of redoing the bushings i think ill just live with the crappy ride haha nice job tho. Must drive like a dream after all that work
DIYGuys I did it all in a harbor freight sandblast cabinet , it's only like $150 with a coupon , can't go wrong. Thing just takes like 5 hours to assemble

In theory they should! Good luck man!
Do you know the part numbers for the caster and camber bolts
Jesus, after watching the struggle of redoing the bushings i think ill just live with the crappy ride haha nice job tho. Must drive like a dream after all that work
GDaniel it was a fun project in the off season !
Where did you get the bolt hardware? Part numbers?
look up any honda parts website and search through the catalogs
Did you paint everything yourself and just get the sandblasting outsources? I really like how fresh everything looks.
DIYGuys I sandblasted everything myself and painted the tie rods , the only think I got outsourced was the powdercoating of the arms
Thats awesome. I'm going to have to look into getting sandblasting equipment. Looks really useful.

when you put in the camber bolts, is there a certain orientation of the bolts you need to put them in?
Junfeng Xu the plates need to be facing the same way, that's it, the adjustment of the orientation is up to your alignment guy to adjust
gotcha thanks man! good video
does the compliment bushing get compressed when you tight the camber adjustment bolt on
s2k art 03 the bushings all have a metal inner core so when everything gets tightened the rubber does not compress
nice!
Any civic videos coming soon?
Damien Rios yes there will be !
Should of told me to get the parts for you bro
got them from AFH, they were a pretty decent discount already
Well whenever you need to get something just tell me know
what boots did you use to rebuild your tie rod ends? I need to do that to my ball joints and tie rods. they are good but boots are tearing now. love how your doing everything!
