I did a search and could not find what tools I need to do the conversion.Im going to the wrecking yard tomorrow and I dont know what tools I need to take the hubs off.I dont need the trailing arm I just want the hubs.They told me it will be 50% less without the trailing arms.Plus my car already has a full set of ES bushings and dont want to swap the trailing arm bushings out.What tool or size do I need to remove the hubs on a 90-93 teg?

 

Anyone know?

 

Those star bits. I forget what they are called. THIS **** IS NOT EASY.

I did this on my 98 Civic. Noticed I said 98? Yeah I had it up on jacks 3 days. Learned how to drill pretty good. especially since they are some thick bolts. Hopefully you get lucky.

But to answer you question. I forget the size of it... and what the tool it called its star shaped. And its a male the bolts you need to get out is a female (so the male goes into this one).

There will be one big nut on the back forgot the size. Perhaps 32mm.

Then I think it comes right out. but not positive. I did this about 2 years ago and this is off the top of my head. Promised myself I would never do that again.

Oh yeah you can look at the back of your drum brake assembly to tell what I am talkinga bout they have the same thing. You will also need to take off the e-brake cable. and the brake line.

I did it today took me 2 hours to take everything off.I had to run to autozone and get the T-50 torque bit to take the hubs off.I got the proportion valve the hubs complete brake and caliper assembly with all the brake lines.Im gonna buy the rotors new since the junkyard charges more for used ones.Im also gonna buy new brakes to match the new rotors.They charged me $98 for everything.I heard the integra ebrake cables are too long.Which ones do I need? The 91 crx si cables are the correct ones right?

 

Ive searched and searched I cant find info on the 88-89 crx brake conversion on which E-brake cables to use.I found info on every car but the 88-89 crx.The 90-93 E brake cables are too long? 90-91 si e brake cables are the right size?
