First Line offers economical Honda Civic subframe bush solution

First Line is proud of its record of introducing parts that provide workshops with the components they really need on a daily basis to solve common issues with practical and economical solutions. The latest example of this is the addition of a separate rear subframe bush for the Honda Civic from 2005>2012.


First Line identified rising demand for this component, but also noted that the original equipment supplier only offered the complete subframe, inclusive of the bushes, making the replacement a very costly exercise for the motorist. However, by providing the bushes in isolation (First Line part number FSK8051), in matching OE spec, First Line has made bush replacement a far more cost effective and environmentally friendly practice, as there is now no need to remove and discard the entire subframe assembly.

First Line’s recommended best practice is to replace both left and right hand bushes at the same time. In addition, the technician undertaking the work must ensure they use the correct tooling when pressing the old bushes out and the new versions in to the subframe.
