Broken! Busted! Everybody has something to repair. Before buying new, let Mighty Putty fix it for you.
Howdy fellow honda owners. I have a question that maybe you can help me with.

My 1994 Honda Accord EX, m/t has a RR trailing arm bushing that is hosed. Everywhere I look, that part is discontinued. So my question is this: which bushing should I get to press it in the trailing arm? Can you even do that with these? Am I SOL? Should I just zip tie it and hope it holds up?!

Depends on exactly what arm / bushing you mean. Option B would be aftermarket poly bushings. These have some daily driver downsides but would work. Prothane and energy suspension would be options to consider.

Pics of the exact bushing would help us narrow it down.

Yeah I didn't think to take a picture. That woud have been a smart thing to do. I do have the service manual though.

I looked through rockauto five different times looking for that drat part and looked over it every time lol. Replacing the entire arm is definitely preferred and what I will end up doing now.
