hey had a question was wondering will ek shocks fit on an eg? will the springs fit too? springs for civics is 88-00 correct?

 

ek shocks will fit in the front but in the rear you have to shave the bushings i think down

 

Fronts fit. Springs fit. Rears will fit with grinding of the LCA.

 

what part do i grind down any pictures?

you grind the bushing that the lower end of the shock bolts to. It is probably faster if you just cut it.

 

so i can't force it in or anything? so i should just cut just the bushing? i don't have to do anything to the control arm?

 

you will have to do grind or cut the bushing with it in the control arm unless you have a press. You will not be able to bend the lower shock mounting point enough to make it fit properly.

 

can i take the ek lower control arm an put it on?

 

no, the lca's are different sizes
You could use an ek bushing, I think...but thats more work than Id want to do

 

would it if i have spare lca from another eg. can't i just buy the bushing and go get it pressed in?

Getting it pressed in is more work than cutting/grinding the existing bushing. I don't know for sure if you can press in an ek bushing into an eg arm.

 

i c i will try and figure it out
