Bushing kit question

ludesrvludesrv Band Wagon
in Suspension, Braking & Wheels
I want to get a urethan bushing kit. As far as I can tell, it's the same kit as the CRX and Civic hatch. But with my experience with the wagon and its one off parts, I want to double check before I order the kit. My wagon has 271XXX miles on it. The bushings are GONE! It rides terrible. I'm sure the bolts don't like it.

    The CRX/Civic kit works with the wagons.

    yup, the bushing kit from any 89-91 civic/crx will work great for you.

    Good to know. Finally I can get a deal on some parts. Ebay has some great deasl for the kits, Energy suspension ftw.

    Fitting the RTA Energy bush will dramatically change the way your rear end handles.
    Personally I'm not a fan and just replace with a stock RTA bush.
    The RTA moves in more than one direction. Something the Energy one finds hard to do and restricts the ability.

    Actually the 'master' kits do not come with RTA. Besides, it's not a race car so some stock bushings are going in to retain that stock feel. But right now it's so loose and playful, and squeeky and knocking around, especially in the back and in the front suspension during loading.
