I want to raise my WAGOVAN wagon!
I really want to raise my wagovan so i can get a bit more use out it. I hear that 90-93 integra springs are taller than the wagon springs and are meant for the heavier integra which would raise the wagon approx. 1". Which shocks should I use the da shocks or the stock wagon shocks? It seems to me that with the taller da springs and i guess now shorter wagon shocks, i would be at a loss of some sort?

If I was you I would buy some Sway-Away Runner Coilovers. You will have to do some fabrication to fit them, but it will make it baja ready. They are available in various lengths and travel. You could probably fab some longer control arms, and get even more travel out of it.
sway away coils huh? got some sort of link? im kinda wanting to do this as cheaply as possible just as a fun beater
You could try 5th Gen Prelude springs. I ran the rears on the back of my CRX for a couple of weeks for *****'n'giggles. My car looked like a redneck hotrod. lol
I don't know if the fronts will work, but the rears were just a little bigger diameter than the CRX's. I trimmed the upper mount bushing and they fit nice and tight.

Could a spacer be put ontop of the front strut bearings between the body and strut bearing as far as the front goes? I know most FWD cars can be listed like this, but have not been into the honda front suspension in a long time. That would make is so you are not topping out your stock struts, and would retain the stock spring/ride. Not sure on the rear at all with out looking at it.
spacers Im not so sure about.... prelude springs which shocks would i run? I guess im mainly looking for more information about anyone using the DA springs/shocks on a wagon
You might be able to run Prelude shocks with the Civic hats. The front, I think, would work with the Civic hat and lower fork. The rear, the lower fork might need some adjustment. It's been a while since I was under my Prelude: I sold it 2 years ago.
