Hi guys,

My drivers side front camber and castor adjusters are siezed so i need to replace a few parts.

The parts supplier said this:Thanks for your email, see below parts diagram, let me know what parts you require from there. Unfortunately some bushes may not be available separately and may be part of a whole suspension part like an arm



I am new to the s2000 and have not taken the suspension apart before.

Which number parts should I order so that I can get full adjustability on camber and castor?

B serious

26, 13, 14 - Caster adjusters

25, 19, 30 - Camber adjusters.

You also need the control arms 11 and 12, as the bushings are not sold separately from Honda.

You can also opt to buy aftermarket bushings separately. Hardrace and Megan make good replacements. There are other companies that make them as well.

If you buy rubber camber bushes or factory arms...make sure you DO NOT tighten the camber adjuster and shock bolt without clocking the arms properly to your ride height.

The camber bushing is very strong. You can use an air hammer, or demolition drill, or any type of reciprocating impact tool to push out the seized bolt. For the caster, it's the compliance bushing. You will need to cut out the bolt and bushing, with a reciprocating saw.

You can replace the compliance bushing with a Spoon, Mugen, or Hard Race version. If you're cheap, you can get a cheap low quality bushing from Ebay, or buy a used control arm and harvest the bushing. Powerflex has a hybrid spherical/urethane bushing as well. I do not recommend full spherical bushings on the lower arm unless you're going full race car.

The reason the compliance bushing wears out is because there are 2 gaps on either side. So all the load is concentrated on 2 sides as opposed to being distributed across the whole bushing. The downside to having a fully distributed load is that you'll be increasing the wheel rate.

I've never tried it, but maybe, you could weld something to the caster sleeve like a bolt or something with a lip so you can use a puller or slide hammer to yank it out.

Thanks guys I just ordered the Mugen compliance bushes. They were a pain to find but @Si@WBperformance was able to sort a set for me. Thanks Bud!

Where is the best place to buy part numbers:
26, 13, 14 - Caster adjusters
25, 19, 30 - Camber adjusters.

Also, do I need a rubber bushing to go around part 13?

Thanks again

13 goes through your new mugen rubber bush.So no to Question ^
Tegiwa sell parts if Si doesnt do them
