Can I use abs rotors and calipers from an integra to upgrade my non-abs civic?
Also how in the world do i remove the ball joints? i tried using a forked ball joint remover, but i cant even budge it, and im afraid i'll damage the rubber booting if i try any harder? Any ideas? Thanks

2) It doesn't matter if you have ABS or not, the rotors don't care/are irrelevant.

I have a civic lx, and want to do a brake upgrade. I have an integra knuckle, rotors, calipers but it was abs. Can i still use it on my civic? Thanks

Yes you sure can use the integra brakes on your car. Just unbolt all of the ABS crap since your LX doesn't utilize ABS. Or you can just leave the small ABS sensors on there which won't hurt either....but won'd do a damn thing.
good luck.

also with the ball joints, not really the correct way??
but if you hit on the control arm with a hammer, ball joint seperates.
just dont hit to hard and becareful not to hit the castle nuts!!!!

you can also try an alternative tool....a ball joint puller (not a pickle fork). It has 3-4 legs and looks like a claw. Check one out at Pep Boys...
