Default dch22a suspension problem!

I have an h22 in my 95 integra and I put new struts and springs on all the way around. I also put in prelude forks(lower control arm) so that the axle has more room. It still hits something when I hit a bump or go left. Has anyone had this problem, if so how did you fix it?
And any h22 tegs, what setup do you have right now and how is it working.

You should be just fine with the DC (Integra) forks, otherwise you can try 90-93 Accord forks. But when you say it "hits something" are you saying that the axles hit the Prelude forks or are you talking about "something" is hitting "something" underneath? Depending on how low your car is, your stock shocks might be compressing all the way into the tower and "bottoming out" there, which has happenned with my car, even with Tokico HP struts and Skunk2 coilovers (Civic spring rates on my old EG H22 hatchback..... same front end as a DC Integra). If that's the case, which is sounds like is the problem, then you just need better struts & springs for your setup. If it's rubbing the fork (which won't make a "bang" sound when you hit a bump while driving, but just rather rub), then try a different fork.

I have tokico blues and eibach pro kit on the front.
It is a rattle noise when I hit bumps or go left.
It doesn't do anything when I go right, which is odd.

I have an hcp mount kit.
I just put in two new axles and now the left is perfect but when i go right it hits really bad.
The guy who put in the axles for me told me i could be the mount kit doing that.
Anyone know what the problem is, it's gettin really annoying.

I have 89 integra axles with prelude midshaft.
When I go right it vibrates like crazy.
What do I need to fix it?
