Default Suspension Options For Civic Wagons?

The Suspension finally went out, well at least on the passenger side, and I want to replace them with something aftermarket. I have had my eye's on Tien Basic Dampeners for a while, and was wondering which chassis(EF9 or ED8/9) is best compatable with the EE chasssis.

Default Thanks

Thanks for the link, it has cleared alot of things up for me.

It kinda sucks now, that I'll have to buy different coil-overs for rear if I want to use aftermarket suspension. Oh well, I guess thats what you get doing something out of the ordinary, but at least I'll be one of the few if any in CA that is doing a Civic Wagon project car.

well, if you buy a complete kit, you don't have to buy different stuff front and rear. i swapped out struts and springs for a same year hatchback on mine.

89-91 front struts are the same as crx, si, civic, wagon
88-91 rear struts are wagon only, best to switch to crx/civic rear struts if you ever hope to use an aftermarket spring. Wagon spring perches on the rear are lower than standard civics to allow for longer stock springs.
