Default da rear lower arm in a 88hb std

My stock rear lower arm is bent on my 88hb std model , so i need to put in a another one. I have 90 da lower arms. I took look but it looks like i might need to put the da damper to make it fit. Will it bolt right up or will it mess up my alignment?

it'll "fit", but it wont be the right control arm to use. and yes, since you have 88 control arms, you need a different shock for it to fit. so you wont be able to use the shocks you have on there now.

DA control arms are the odd ones. theyre a tad longer, so they will mess up the alignment, and they put the shock in the wrong place.

you COULD use EG/DC control arms, the geometry is the same. but again, youll still need different shocks.
