Default real quick stupid question

are all civic rear lcas, excuding the 88 models, the same dimension? i.e. will a aftermarket rear lca for a 89 ef go on, say, a 00 civic?

i know the bushings WITHIN the lcas are a bit different. but are the dimensions the same?

88-95 Civic rear LCAs interchange, not with 96-00 Civic rear LCAs.

why exactly is that? different dimension all together? or is it just the bushing where the shock connects to the lca?

if thats the only difference, ill just put an ek bushing in the ef rear lca

The 96-00 Civic rear LCAs are longer than 88-95 Civic LCAs.

ok thats what i figured. they look like it. i have ef coilovers on my 00 coupe because all the rates are the same on the k sports. i just used the crx front forks and used the ef bushing in the 00 rear lca. but i was wondering if i could use the whole damned lca
