dude hitting the threads of the ball joint with a hammer is never going to do anything besides mangle the threads. all you have to do is hit the side of the loop on the spindle with a 4lb mini sledge a few times and the ball joint will pop out on its own. this is the best way to do it if someones trying to avoid damaging the ball joint or boot

I think videos of these small improvements are really important because they apply to people who swap motors and race as well as do general maintenance. Thorough and informative. I'll definitely save this for later.

Awesome, thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts with me. They are fun jobs to do that aren’t such a big undertaking like some others can be. Hope it can help you or act as a loose guide for you in the future then. Thank you!

Cars are looking very nice, I'm jealous. And for me these little things are what keeps me coming back, I also did some of these mods in my car and had no idea how, back then there where no videos to look into for help jist pictures online and try to figure it out on my own. But who ever wants to start a project car all these little details help a lot. Only a few videos like yours out there and like 1mill engine swap videos. So keep up the good work and can't wait to see what else you guys have lined up for the cars.

Hi buddy those look sweet, as a mechanic here in the UK i know those arms are going to make a lot of difference because almost anything made out of tubular steel will make it much stronger its the reason ALL rollcages are tubula very nice mod cheers for the upload SCOOBS UK.

Cars looking good coming along. I also need to replace tie rods upper control arm n lower ball joint bushing. I replaced all the other ones. The one that i felt the biggest difference was the the rear trailing arm bushing. It used to get squirrelly set high speeds turns.

The real benefit of this swap is gaining the adjustment at the ball joint. They look like good units for circle track racing. You don't want control arms or any suspension components to be heavy or beefy. Half that weight is unsprung and adding weight here will hurt handling. Keep suspension components as light as possible.

Nice Hard Race front camber for Civic. I have Hard Race rear upper arm kit on my 94 Accord and my car felt more solid and firm with lowering. I love it. I want to get front camber kit but kit is out of stock. This kit should give a better solid and steering response.I did research on google that EF Civic and Accord are same design of front camber kit but different two bolts, not need support between two bolts on EF Civic. I wonder if your camber kit cause any harsh or hit the chassis under? Let me know, thanks.

@hondajack80496 жыл бұрын
hey man should deff be doing up those bushes loaded by jacking up under the lower control arm until it just lifts the corner off the stand this will make sure the bush is in its relaxed state when tightened tightening the bush unloaded and just putting it in will cause premature wear and kill the rubber bonded bushing as it will be constantly bound if that makes sense as that arm moves quite a bit once its loaded see in you're vid when you were moving the arm up and down it was springing back to the same relaxed state thats how it needs be loaded right in that sweet spot
@RefineMovement6 жыл бұрын
Cool man, thanks! Nothing is connected up entirely yet
@hondajack80496 жыл бұрын
Refine Movement yeah perfect then just losen that 14mm through bolt and do it up at ride height you will be set. Doing up any rubber bonded Bush unloaded will destroy them in no time different if its a polyurethane bush with the crush tube centre that spins freely those you can tighten at any stage
@RefineMovement6 жыл бұрын
Just thinking about that, I don’t know how I would tighten those bolts for the bushes when it’s loaded like you describe though. The bolts and nuts for those are up in the shock tower and it doesn’t allow you to put a socket or even an open ended wrench on it. Especially not when the coilovers is on there. And if the coilovers wasn’t in there and I would try to tighten those bolts then, it wouldn’t be loaded, right?
@hondajack80496 жыл бұрын
Refine Movement you should be able to get open ended spanners in there its a tight squeeze but definitely do able and yeah to be accurate at where the loaded point is you need the new coil over in
@RefineMovement6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for taking the time to share that with me. I’ll have to try and see if I can get my openended wrenches in there when I put the new coilovers in. It’s a tight squeeze for sure. Every other video I have watched of people putting these things in including Skunk2 tighten them before installing. I understand what you are saying though by it being loaded and how that would help the bushes.

How do you like or deal with the HardRace upper control arm adjusting bolts, being on the top rather than a design where they're on the bottom? Just curious cause I can't decide between these or something TruHart, not sure what would be easier to deal with.
@RefineMovement5 жыл бұрын
I bought the truhart specifically because the bolts were on the bottom. It will be easier on the bottom. Getting a wrench on top is always going to be harder. Robbie had no choice because of his sponsor to get these. -Travis

The Hardrace units look so much more robust than the flimsy factory pieces. Should give you much more adjustability to dial in your ride for the track.

That was my first thought too. The Hardrace pieces really do feel stronger when comparing it to the factory piece. Really looking forward to being able to dial in some camber settings.

Haven’t driven it yet so stay tuned if you care to see. But I don’t anticipate it to do so. There’s plenty of room for the arm to move up in the wheel well. I’ll be doing a modest 2” drop so it’s not like the car will be slammed all the way down.
