Default Ek Rear Trailing arms onto EF *SEARCHED*

EDITED

What e-brake cables should I use. I have both the EK and the EF ones.



Will the OEM EK rear trailing arms bolt onto an ef chassis.

I ask because I have a set.

I understand the toe will be out, but thats what the alignment arm from the EF trailing arm is for right ? If I swap that over to the EK arm I should have proper alignment.

Im just curious if it will work as an assembly.

Thanks

It will work. Just make sure you use only the EK trailing arms by themselves. You need to use all the EF control arms for it to work. An alignment shouldnt be necessary assuming you didnt loosen the alignment bolt on accident.

The EF cables are the right length for the car. You might be able to use the EK ones if you really had to though.
