CRX Suspension Build-Up
Alright this is my first write-up ever... From what the title says I am going to start a complete tear down and build of my suspension. I'll post the progression. I think this could be easily done in few days, but I'm not going to. I'm not in a rush and I don't have a lot of extra time to do this. So it will be a slow progress, but I figure I could get lots of feedback, suggestions and comments during the build. I'll get some pics up soon...
This is what I got so far:
Front:
new OEM LCA bushings
new OEM Wheel Bearings
new OEM Lower Ball joints
used UCA with Ingalls camber kit [from my old si]
new OEM bolts all around ( hey why not, might as well )
used HF sway bar and Si sway bar
new OEM tie rod ends
Rear:
new OEM Type R Lower Control Arms ( should I get 88 si LCAs instead? )
new OEM Compensator Bushings
new OEM TA bushing
new OEM bolts all around
This is what still needs to be ordered
Front:
Bushings for Radius Rods (Prothane, ES or OEM?)
Bushings for Sway bar (Prothane or ES?)
Koni Sport(ordering with the GCs)
GC (haven't determined a spring rate)
GC tophats
Quaife Steering rack
Steering rack end bushings
Rear:
Suspension Techniques 7/8" Sway Bar
(interested in the Progress 24mm adj bar, but the ST has a kit for 88's)
Koni Sport(ordering with the GCs)
GC (haven't determined a spring rate)
Ingalls camber kit
First question, Is 2mm more of sway bar worth it for the Progress bar? If so I'd have to get 89 n up LCA and bushings. If i remember correctly, they have a kit for STD model civics that did not come with a sway bar. Or does mount up like the STs with the tow hooks.
