After reading all these threads about front control arm bushings, I'm finally gonna replace mine. My drivers side almost completely gone. The wheel moves all over when i'm driving. Now I'm probably gonna go with the 4th gen Energy set. If I order the 7-3111G, for $43 from Courtesyparts.com, does this come with bushings for both arms or just one side? Also, from people who have these in their 3rd gens already, what are your opinions on ride, noise, handling, etc. using these?

Yes, no, ride = great, noise = none if you lube, handling = very nice, etc = yes

What Jeffy said. mine have been on the car for over 2 years and they still don't squeak. noise factor is zilch. ride comfort is like stock, but handling is much improved. there is ZERO reason not to do this.

So how are the ES bushing? should I get em when mine are gone?

They are more stiff. If you drive hard you should get them. If you granny it, not much porpose.

I know they made a BIG difference on the front with a low suspenion. I don't see you noticing a difference on stock.

There is alot of slop in the rear, these would help. I don't have them in the rear yet, but will when I'm ready for another alignment.

well I'm putting GR2s in the front but not lowering, think it'll still be worth spending the 45 bucks?

iTrader: (44)

yes.

thank you sir, whats the life expentancy on bushings that came on control arms purchased from Brian? sorry for dumb questions but I'm actually wondering

Alex_V

His LCA's are basically brand new from brian, both of them if I remember right. Would that still help? I know mine are worn out but Im just going to get bushings and put them in my LCA's.

I dunno. years I'm guessing.
i've never messed with them myself and always just installed the ES bushings. quicker and cheaper and better performance.

Damn i havent been on here enough recently!

What other 4th gen bushings fit ours?

Matt93SE

iTrader: (44)

none.
the rest of the car is completely different.

So there is not a "3rd gen" set of front bushings?

Also, am I to understand the lower subframe bushing would not work for us?

And does anybody have pics of the kit, uninstalled or installed?
