LCA compatibility? suspension swap ?'s
i am pretty sure this will work but figured i'd check anyway.
i have a 93 del sol si on tein ss dampers. i plan on picking up a 96+ hatch and swapping the teins from the sol to the hatch. i know that the 96+ LCA are different [slightly narrower where the strut mounts up]. same issue that arises with the Megan LCA's in pre 96 cars.
anyway, are there any other fitment issues with the LCA if i planned on swapping the LCA from the del sol [or better yet, purchasing aftermarket LCA's for a 92-95 civic for the 96+ car?].
i believe everything else will both right up correct?
i just don't want to do the "washer" deal...

sorry, but i think you are stuck with it, short of buying new suspension.

Well, on the EG platform, it's a bit wider than that of the EK. If anything, you'll need to grind down on the bushing a little in order for the EK ones to fit.
