Default 90-93 teg knuckles on 88-91 civic\crx

ive realized that teg knuckles are taller. Has any one running this swap ever had problems with travel on a lowered car??? from my understanding it affects caster, camber and toe. all of which can be adjusted with the right suspension upgrades.
Has any one had the upper a arms hit on a hard dip ?????
thanks.....

I have 91 knuckles on my 89 hatchy I charged it out to I can run stock del sol
b16a3 axles on my ride worked great the knuckles I got came with rotors and I
just took it to kragens to get them turned but the knuckles worked great I'm using stock spring all I did was went and got a wheel alienment becacuse I changed out my tie rod end as well but I guess as long as you dont mess with the tie rods you should be fine

if you use 88-91 ex knuckles, you wont have to worry about any suspension issues. but you still will have to have an alignment done.

im lowered on skunk 2's ...and i do have 90-91 ex knuckles but im doing a 96 type r conversion. Im using DA knuckles with the 96 spec hub pressed in (96 spec hub will be turned down .030 O.D.) i recently laid the EX and DA knuckles side by side and noticed the height change which raised a red flag for me......crexer?? i didn't know crx upper control arms were different from civic hatch ones.

i'm using DA knuckles with stock crx control arms. after alignment and about a 2-2.5'' drop (top of the tire is almost even with the fender, hardly tucked), the car rides perfectly fine...this is with tein ha suspension at medium settings.
