Default dc2 knuckle on ek

Alright ive been running my integra knuckles on my 99 civic lx for awhile with no problems but recently did an alignment at work and the lower ball joint looks to be rubbing against the backibg plate? Was wondering if this is normal with my set up? Also have buddyclub camber kits maxed out at 1.6* negative camber pics will come soon.

Backing plate? You mean the brake dust cover?

Just bend the dust shield away from the lower ball joint.

I bent the plate already but was just wondering if this was normal? Or if I should be worrying about it?

Those shields bend pretty easily. Hit with a jack, lean on the wrong way, etc. It could have bent by you during the install.

bend it out of the way, and go on with your day.
