- Today i will be installing a megan racing rear lower control arm on my 01 honda civic Lx, simple install and looks nice too!!
Megan racing control arms “for off road use only” : ebay.us/1WOMPp
Special 10 point socket (19mm): www.amazon.com...
Good vid 👍
Hay I appreciate the positive comment, hope it helps many.
@@jivediy2711 yeah it definitely did, I was going to pay a mechanic to do it for me but now I'm going to get it done myself this weekend lol 👍
Question, would those control arms fit on the sedan?
This was a install on a 2001 honda civic LX 4door.
Can you please provide Amazon link to the 12 point impact socket you used for the 3 special bolts. I have a 1/2 drive..Thanks
Hello J S thanks for reaching out. I just checked Amazon and they still sell the socket in 1/2 here is the link. Enjoy

Enjoy and thanks for watching
Thanks a lot man, I have the Honda CR-V 2005 I assuming is the same bolt right ?
I’M not 100 percent on that but the socket is not too expensive to give it a try.
how come you used the hand ratchet to tighten the bolts after u preloaded the suspension with the jack? is there a specific reason for that or could i use my impact to tighten it instead of the ratchet?
The only reason I personally do it is for peace of mind lol 😂 i dont want my rear end to come loose.
Also I personally had bad experience with impact gun sheering the heads off so i leave the last tightening to the ratchet.
@@jivediy2711 ohhhhh okok understood, thanks man I was just curious lol
@@jivediy2711 how do they feel? Did they stiffen the ride and I know u posted this vid a while ago so how are they keeping up?
@@GoofyKnockz sorry for the very late reply…. They seem to be holding up fine, my car is lowered as well as having a rear lower tie bar in conjunction of the two control arms. I would say if that if your stock lower control arm bushings are rotted out you might as well upgrade. But like I mentioned there for off road use i dont know how much beating they will take.
