year of car: 1993
trim: Si
body: hatchback
condition of TA bushing: ok signs of cracking
miles you have: over 200k
if you replaced it, which bushing did you replace it with: es polyurethane t/a bushings
worth the 35 bucks and an immediately difference in handling from the rear.

The poly bushings can cause suspension binding...thats not good. Im not going to explain because it can be found by searching. I am honestly surprised they still make those things.
If youre going to replace them, go with mugen or oem (I believe oem is now available - they werent before). Replacing is very simple and straight forward...you can do it yourself.
I replaced mine with mugens when I did the rear disc change-over.
