Front Sway End links : Bushing Collar - Honda Prelude Forum

E_Luder · 07-06-2004, 09:42 PM

I am going to replace the stock bushings that I have with ES bushing for the front endlinks. Inside those bushings there care collars. I have looked at them once before and noticed that they are pretty rusted. I was wondering if replacing them with Stainless collars would cause and issue? I know that stainless is a litte softer than a straight steel so I'm wondering if there will be an issue.
As well what grease is good to lube up poly bushings?

Thanks

The ES bushings should come with new coated collars. You could use those even though they are not stainless steel.

For the 4th gen there isn't any front endlink bushing kits for ES or anyone else for that matter. I got some make**** bushings that I read about in another post. So the question still stands.

Thanks bro.... That was the thread I was talking about. My question thow is can I use stainless steel bushing collars? Will then bend or warp because of pressure? Are they strong enough?

Peace
