Does anybody have experience or have some advice on Energy suspension hyper flex poly bushes ride and install?

Question

Civic ESI 93 (d16z6) salloon 110k miles
My suspension bushes is bust and i need new ones but Honda charges me a cars price for it.
I was thinking of just getting a full new Omni Coilover spring + damper + camber kit and get a full set of
Energy Suspenion hyper-flex poly-bush kit.

All of this is about the same price honda charges.

Im gona do all or most the work myself.

So how hard is it to install bushes / coil overs?
How is the ride quality of the polyurethane bushes, I read around and heard my dashboard gona rattle to hell ?
I Dont think my shocks has ever been changed so my overall quality should improve with new suspension.
Any comments, advice would be appreciated

Answer 1

installing coil-over is not that hard.. but installing the PU bushes is do gonna make u frustrated.. but not that hard comparing too rubber bushes (never attemp to instal rubber bushes.. is a nightmare!!)

Answer 2

I use energy bushings on my sway bars and links. Polyurethane does not like twisting and squeeks happen. other bushing applications like differential mounting and front suspension lower control arms poly bushings work just fine. The main problem I see when owners and do it yourselfer's work on dirty heavy parts of there cars is access to hydraulic press and devices to reinstall the new bushings. The old rusted in rubber bushing sleeve some times needs hack sawing to get out. Be prepaired for busted knuckles and a allow a couple days to complete the work. Then take the car for a four wheel alignment and weigh each corner to get the springs adjusted just right. Replace every worn part at this time, spend lots of money
