Anyone use LCA Energy Suspension Bushings?

My front LCA bushings are shot. I did some cross referencing with the accord and found both LCA bushings from Energy Suspension. It comes in a set, but even if I don't use the extras (upper control arm bushings and strut bushings), it still comes out cheaper than OEM. I'm already going to get the Radius rod bushings from them. I don't mind the stiffer suspension for daily driving either. Anyone try these for their LCA? It seems like a straight forward install and I wouldn't have to torch off any old bushings to reuse parts.

When I replaced the OEM inner and outer LCA bushes, back in 2009, I tried the MOOG Part # K9761 for the outer and MOOG Part # K90436 for the inner. I did not even get 12 months of use, out of the outer ones, before I noticed them splitting at the bottom. I then decided to go back to OEM, which I believe are made by KYB

This does not mean that your ES poly choices above will not work out for you; however, it does mean that you are probably the first. So, with that said. Good Luck, and don't forget to update your thread with your impressions, when complete.

I replaced mine with OEM a few months ago which is my recommendation.
The old ones were a bitch to get out, but the new ones slid in just fine with a press. To get the old ones out, I heated the inner sleeve and pressed it out of the rubber. Then I used a jig saw to cut through the rubber and the outer sleeve being careful not to cut into the LCA. Once the tension was released they pressed out easily.
