SuperPro Front Strut Bar to Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit for 1973-1979 Honda Civic

First-generation Honda Civics are now classics, and the rubber where the front strut bar meets the lower control arm has usually perished. This SuperPro kit replaces it on 1973-1979 cars, including the CVCC and 1200, which suits a restoration, a vintage racer or a car still used on weekends.

A bushing controls how far a suspension link can move off its intended path. When it is in good shape the wheel stays where the engineers placed it through bumps, cornering and braking. When it is worn, alignment settings drift as the load changes, which costs tire life and makes the car feel less settled.

On older vehicles, replacing worn bushings is often the first job worth doing before spending money on springs or dampers. Fresh bushings give the rest of the suspension a solid base to work from, so any later upgrades behave the way they are supposed to.
