Default 91 std hb rear disc conversion

posting for a friend, but will these parts work on a 91 hatch? The only reason why i as is because the description says it may work, and i want to make sure it does work.

Trailing arms are different then the prior generation DA's, I don't believe it will work, but someone else comment

it sure will.... i've installed 94 and up rear disc on my 90 civic hatch, for posible alignment issues just use your existing trailing arms and swap over the hubs.

I used a eg6 rear disc setup, All I had to change was the bracket that bolt to the frame. used my stock trailing arms. and da integra brake lines. didn't touch the hubs.

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by slywfbpsi &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">I used a eg6 rear disc setup, All I had to change was the bracket that bolt to the frame. used my stock trailing arms. and da integra brake lines. didn't touch the hubs.</TD></TR></TABLE> ......many people have done this as well the, only reason i say to change the hubs is you won't find out if the arms are bent unless you put the on or go get an alignment. It happened to me once so i always do it the hard way but SLYWFBPSI idea will work as well.

yeah I didn't do an alignment. no premature tire wear. i've read that if you did it that way and not take off the upper trailing arms or whatever they are called. you do not mess with the geometry.

there's that bolt there yes, but there's also a bolt underneath the car towards the front of the trailing arm that is adjustable, which is also used for the alignment.

the one your talking about i beleive is for cambering in/out, but the bolt i mentiond is to keep the tire straight, not turning left or right instead.

hopefully that made sence.
