becuase i want to do it myself and not waste cash and i heard that its easier to do than the front ? well if anyone can tell me a link that has steps because i tried searching and came up wit nada

 

it's really not difficult at all. Look at the way your stock ones are on.. remove them and put your new ones on. Simple as that. But my guess is you want an algorithm for uninstall/install.

there's only 2 nuts and 1 bolt holding the rear suspension in place. Take the bolt out first from the bottom of the damper. Then the two nuts from the top of the damper in the trunk and viola!

Assuming you are smart enough to take off rims and have something to properly hold up the vehicle.

 

haha thanks so there is just 3 bolts? and i dont have to worry about holding anything up like when u have to do front suspension? cuz thats a pain in the ***

 

Nope. As long as your car is jacked up your fine and yep 2 nuts 1 bolt. The rear is the easiest.

 

koo **** thanks my friend

 

yep np. have fun

 

You'll need to rent a spring compressor, to swap springs once the strut assembly is out.

 

i think the rears are twice as easy than the front

 

I honestly had an easier time with the front than the back! Only because I wasn't smart enough to take the back end apart to find the two uper bolts. After twenty minutes of looking it finally clicked. I guess that is what I get for doing installs at 11:00 P.M. LOL!

 

LOL that's funny.. oh well wierd things happen at night.

 

Also, it is best to disconnect that rear upper control arm. Else the oem spring/shock may not want to come out very easy.

 

To be honest the front is way easier then the rear. I got lucky on one side and was able to line the A arm up pretty easy on the driver side but the passenger side was a bitch to line up. You might have to have a friend help you out because lining the strut up to the a arm is a pain in the ***. The front is very easy and everything lines up easily.

 

the back is waaay easier to do than the front all you have to worry about is to line up the strut back up with to hold on the frame i did it by myself so it took about 3hrs but i found this link on clubrsx hope it helps ..... http://forums.clubrsx.com/show...ation

What? Do these guys even have uca's?

 

I think he's talking the piece a camber kit would replace.

The rear is a double-wishbone setup. A bad one, but it is still wishbone.

 

Interesting that they switched to the inferior design where it matters much more, and left the rear similar.

To be honest, I would've rather had struts all the way around than the 'compact' double-wishbone setup Honda used on the rear of the cars.

The main reason why the cars won't turn is, surprisingly, because of the rear.

 

Too much rear grip? So your ideal would be front wishbone, rear strut?

Not really too much rear grip...more like bad geometry.

Ideal setup is a proper double-wishbone, like the DC2 and EG has.

 

Ah. I thought you meant all Honda's.

Proper rear wishbone..how do you reckon EG's have that. Isn't that more like what the Prelude's have in the back?
