Hey i have an EK hatch with type r suspension. I bought the car with the suspension on it and i need the aluminum rear control arms b/c one of them is bent. Now, would civic control arms work or do i need integra type r control arms? How can i tell the difference and not screw up and order the wrong one? Thanks

 

You need Type-R specific control arms for Type-R specific shocks. The bottoms of the Type-R units are ball and socket-looking units, so the control arms that correspond to them have cups that the struts rest in. The Civic units are straight across and the shocks have a fork at the bottom that you string a bolt through.

Comprende?

 

well see i have civic coilovers so im guessing i have civic control arms?

Yes, so you need to replace with Civic LCAs.

 

dc integra rear lca is not going to work on ek chassis, they are different length. are u talking about ctr suspension?

 

you need to get the lca for ek 96-00 the itr rear lca is way different and wont even fit on your ek

 

thanks alot guys for the help
