Quick Question, Can the 96 - 00 Honda civic Coupe Shocks & Springs work on the 92 - 95 Civic Hatchback??

Just wondering if they are the same.
Thanks..

 

Bump

If I remember right the only difference is the width of the LCA on the rear setup. One is a tad wider than the other, but it's nothing that can't be done. I've done it plenty of times. Works fine.

 

the only probably swapping suspension i have had it when trying to use teg shocks on my ek- the rear lower part hit the lca and wouldnt sit right on the lca- not width problems - height problems with the fork portion of the shock- springs work fine tho

 

The forks on the rear struts of the 96-00 civic are not wide enough to fit around the 92-95 rear lca bushings. That's about the only problem.

 

Thanks guys
