Default LCA's for BB2. does anyone make them?

I was looking through the forum that shows exhaust/ rear suspension setups, and I've noticed that everyone had either omnipower or function 7 LCA's, but I never saw one Prelude, does any company make them for us?

the only real reason they make these for civics is because some didnt come with swaybars and they needed new LCAs to connect swaybars too...

the weight savings are minimal....

if youre in it for the bling, just ziptie neons to yours...

yeah they make custom lca's. it will just cost more than your prelude.



and yeah, if you want them for the bling. cause obviously you just saw it and thought to yourself "wait, everyone else has em, why not me?"

The main reason Preludes don't have LCA's is because of the double wishbone suspension that they have in the front & rear. Manufacturing an LCA that can safely accomodate the knuckle's balljoint is not cheap or easy. Think, do all these civics & integras have aftermarket LCA options up front? No, because of the double wishbone.

A group buy was attempted on Preludeonline for Omni to make LCA's for Ludes, but Omni wanted a huge amount of purchasers (100 I think) & a price wasn't ever mentioned but it was sounding like it was going to be very high.

Actually, Omni did just realease FLCA's for Civics and Tegs...though there is lots of speculation from what I've read...

Wow, I just checked out their site & they've had pre-orders going for the FLCA's for a few months now. I guess that's why they were "willing" to make some for the Prelude, since they decided it was worthwhile to make FLCA's for Civics & Integra's. I'm curious what they will look like if/when they are actually released.

they do handle really good stock and ur right, they prolly dont need them. I was just wondering b/c Id never seen them before and I thought it might be worth looking into.
