Honda Civic EK K SWAP - Part 2 refurbing the EG Subframe

[@josuemedina8786]

Good video! Are you running ek coilivers or eg?

[@FlawlessCulture]

Thank you, they are coilovers which fit both ek and eg. They have a collar on the front struts.

Hey man! I keep coming back to your videos before I start my build aha! How did you remove the bushes out of the front lower arms? Also did you buy new arms? Or just clean and respray yours? Thanks!

[@FlawlessCulture]

Hey dude! Ha ha no worries feel free to ask away, I pushed the bearings out with my 12t press, you can also do it with sockets either side with threaded bar through them and nuts, done that in the past, if not pop down to a local garage they will smash them out for you. No the arms where cleaned, etch primed and resprayed with Halfords finest Gloss Black rattle cans.

@@FlawlessCulture great to know thank you! Maybe I should invest in a press. Does your 12t press take care of wheel bearings no issue? The arms looked mint so that’s good to know! Did you just wire wheel them? Thanks man!

[@FlawlessCulture]

@@HyperCut_Films Yeah I've pressed in wheel bearings, pressed out wheel bearings, also used it for diff bearings too so really good to have around. Yeah just a wire wheel on a grinder, I'm thinking of getting a small sand blaster to see what the difference would be as I have some ek4 front hubs and calipers I want to refurb.

@@FlawlessCulture this is awesome to know man! There’s a 12t press on Facebook market place for £100 that I might have to get then! Wheel bearings have always been a pain on my old Hondas and had to take it all off and take it to a workshop and pay. It’s abit easier now as back in the day I needed the car back for Monday/work aha. But would be ideal to have a press and do it all myself! I’ve got a bench grinder coming also from a friend so I’ll get a wire wheel and go from there! Thank you so much for all of your help!!
