There is no end to my suffering in this video. The comments suggest that’s the way you like it.
This video covers the removal of the rear suspension on my 2000 Integra Type R. I use many tools and techniques to get the job done that you might find helpful.

Are you at your home garage?
Glad to see you again! I was excited to see the notification for new videos. Just wondering, what face shield were you using in the video?
Oh to be in your 20s or 30s and made of rubber again……lying on the floor messing with cars is serious punishment on the body for the over 40s 50s.
Good call on the CRV parts. ðŸ‘ÂÂ🙂 Found that out the hard way when I got a front wheel bearing that was definitely the correct one for JDM R's from 98, until it clearly wasn't when offered up(this was from Honda too). Measured the old one and went digging and found out it was the exact same size as you guessed it a front wheel bearing from a 90's CRV.
Would have gone the same route for bushings like the rear control arm, but it turned out Civic/Teg/CRV were all the same price where I am. Went Hardrace(rubber bushings) for the upper control arm and toe in thingie. Not for performance, but because they were cheaper than Honda(and adjustable as a bonus). That's generally how I've done things suspension wise. Honda or Hardrace, depending on price. I've no problem admitting I'm a total cheapskate. 😠Plus it's my daily so speed at getting it back on the road is a big factor.
All that crawling on the floor aint healthy. I once saw a YT-guy that had a very large garage and a lift. You should get you that, Eric. 😉
Is it safe to assume that since you are working and filming in your home garage that there are no new developments get a shop of your own?
Welcome back Eric! Was so excited to see this pop up in my feedðŸ˜ÅÂ
Thank you for taking us on your adventures fixing the car watching from South Africa
Eric your a star mate hot spaner, nail gun and be brave enough to cut into the chassie to get acsess to what you need to get at. 65 year old geordie mechanic eddie b
That car put up a fight! When I did that, and the Integra put up a struggle I thought it was rough… Until I watched your battel. A good thing about living in California, oh, and the driving.
Is that a vice that attaches to a trailer hitch? Homemade or bought? Id love one
I don't see a black beard, I demand a refund!
It looks like you dont need new rear abs sensors but do you happen to know where you could get them from? Ive looked everywhere with no luck. Thanks.
Just did front suspension on a Lexus…tons of fun too, less cutting and torching but plenty of cursing, pry bars, and thank god for the big daddy Milwaukee impact
finaly a normal video showing suspension work on old cars😅😅 ill never buy a honda btw my 1977 volvo 244 dont have that rusted bolts even and we have salt in sweden
Good to see you back Eric.😊Steve
iv'e learned applying heat at the head of the bolt will help a lot
Classic mistake! Bringing an impact gun to a sawzall fight!
Thank you Eric!! ⤠For putting out these new videos . My number one Honda/Acura expert .ðŸ‘ÂÂ
Glad you're making videos again. Will be catching up on your videos.
Great to see you again, Eric! Love the new content!!
The goat ðŸÂ is back

Noice!!
Eric, thank you for the great content. I’ve learned and saved 💰thanks to you. As always keep up the good work ðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ½
Get the stuff from an crv make it awd that would be so cool
Notification squad Have a great weekend!ðŸâ€Â¥ðŸâ€Â¥ðŸâ€ÂÂ¥
You need an induction heater bolt buster
Just to help out, a great company called HardRace sells brand new type R power control arms, with hardened rubber bushings installed, easy to get, if you want to save some trouble
I'm a 36 year-old woman who decided I'm finally going to bite the bullet and learn about cars like I've always wanted to. I just bought a first gen Integra ('88) and this video has me feeling a little overwhelmed and over my head 😅😅 If he's struggling this much, I can only imagine how hard it's going to be for me. oh boy!
I feel your pain brother. We are around the same age and I still climb under rusty cars, and I feel it for days.
Eric I do feel you pain/anguish crawling under the car, but I did in fact chuckle once or twice. Good work man.✌︠Stay dirty.
EricTheCarGuy and Cameraman Brian: YouTube dream team back at it!
He's Back people hell yeaaaa!!!! Welcome back Eric!
Great video! Awesome having you back.
You are great!!!
your misery is entertaining. thanks.
what a struggle ðŸ™Ëâ€
oooh god, now it shows that its more of an old typical car n a rusty crusty fight 😛
Out of curiosity Eric, are you still a vegetarian?
Wow it put up a fight!
I am continuing my BA4 Prelude rebuild. I had to remove the rear subframe after I had the same issue. I ended up tearing the nut off the spot welds, because the bolt was fused to the inner bushing. I also took the fight to the ground, before I cut out the bolts/bushings.
It's off with a welder now, new bolt and retack all the spot welds before off to powder coating. The only luck was the rears are removable and swappable – if it had come to that.
champion is back!!!
Wow 1st time I have seen Eric's videos on a long time. Been watching him for years . Good to see you again
Happy to see the content and Kudos to the camera person.
