92SleeperDX

Hello,
Question.... Will the front knuckles from a 1998 civic ex bolt directly onto my 1992 civic dx hatch? I've got the rear disc assembly from a 1995 integra already, but the front is my issue now. I understand that I will need new master cylinder and proportioning valve and brake booster as well.
If it helps answer my question too I'm having a new engine/tranny installed. Im getting a b18c from HMO with the complete swap, axles and all. Not sure if the B series axle will make a difference when I'm trying to do my brake swap.. Logically to me it seems as though using 1998 civic ex knuckles should work. I've never done this before so your incite will help.

THANKS

Yes, the 96-00 EX front knuckles are the same as the Integra ones (IIRC).
They are an upgrade for our 92-95 Hatches.

You'll need to run at least 14" wheels with those, though.

Good luck.

Hey thanks guys for the info... Im running the 15in rotas so Ill be all good... thanks again!!

the geometry on the 96-00 civic knuckles are different than the integra. it'll change your caster.

caster as far as I know being a noob has do do with alignment. if I use these parts what would you suggest i do to fix the caster problem? thanks

Caster, Camber, and Toe. Those are your three alignment specs. Caster does have something to do with your alignment, but it primarily affects bump steer. Caster is non-adjustable in 92-00 Civics.

So no go on this set of brakes/knuckle will look for integra brakes now i suppose

I think they're still fine.
Forwarding this thread to a couple of people that ought to be able to safely confirm.

I know the front upper control arms differ from 92-95 and 96-00 models, so I'm assuming the knuckles might be different geometry wise.

I can only tell you with 100% certainty that 94-01 Integra knuckles work 100%.

Not sure about 96-00 ones man, sorry.

Its all good I just ended up calling HMO and buying the Integra swap from them.. Took a hit on the 98 option but oh well..
