Fitted my refurbished/E.S. bushed rear LCA's today. Feels a lot tighter at the back now. Noticed I need some new drop links/bushes for the rear ARB too as one has split.

While I was at it, I noticed they are a slightly different design to the ones I took off.

The bushes were a little tight going in the suspension/chassis leg/hub, but thought that was the norm.

Your old ones look like early 16v arms with the tiny bushes. VTEC arms have bigger bushes so I may have sold you VTEC arms and you've took 16v off.

Hmmmm maybe. I've never changed them before and I doubt either of the two previous owners would of as I bought it standard.

Doesn't matter, I like the new ones better anyway. :lol:

Time is passing too quickly with not much word from DNR. I have seen a few people have engines built by DNR, all were booked in after I was, but somehow I feel I keep getting pushed to the back of the queue, even though I've 'paid' for the work to be done months ago now. Still going to see if it can be done by the end of the month as agreed, but we'll see.


6 weeks have passed since I wrote the above, and it's still sat on my bloody drive. :x

DNR is now working under the Endless Horizon team, I don't know how this affects you though.

Yeh I know, I've known for a while. I was still told it would be done by the end of November, and it's now over half way through Decemeber, and I leave in 4 weeks.

No B20 then. :x
