Default what front forks did you use in your h22 swap in your ef?

i have a h22 swap in my 88 ef, and when i did it, for some reason, when i put the axles in (hasport) with the stock forks in, the axles where touchin the forks a lot, like the axles was 2 big. so what i did was gring the hell out of the forks so it could fit, and not touch. is that normal or what?

DA Integra forks have identical geometry/fitment and are much wider. I have them on my CRX because now I can put B-Series axle joints straight through them without having to take them off the LCA . The only way they may not work is that they are only wider on one side. The side that bends outward is way wider but the straight side is still straight. I can get a pic if you want.

I did a H22 swap in a EG, with Hasport's newest version mounts and I had to switch sides. Not sure if the EF is the same.

what do you mean swith sides? like right side to the left side, or just flip it, so the curved side is towards the car.

So the bow goes to the back no the front.

Yes that is definitely true. The da forks are identical but are wider and can fit the axle right through. I loved this when I had my DA it made axles changes take 10 minutes I would be still running them but Im using the eg forks because I got a deal on EG coilovers
