Honda Element/CRV Front Lower Control Arm Bushing Replacement -EricTheCarGuy
While doing a brake job one day, I noticed that the front bushings on the lower control arms of my 2004 Honda element were torn. At first I thought I was going to have to replace both lower control arms until I found out the bushings were available through Honda. Replacing them was something of a challenge, but it can save you quite a bit of money if you decide to just replace the bushings. Fair warning though, you could be in for a fight.
This information will also apply to CRV's of the same vintage.
