Default Urgent: Rear shock fork

Having some shocks made, and need to know the rear shock dimensions of the fork.

I know the EK forks are a bit bigger/smaller than the DC/EG Fork mounts, but I cannot remember which is which.

I have a DC, do I need the smaller fork (40mm) or the larger fork (50mm)? On the end of the shock.

Don't have access to my control arms today or I would just measure them

Integra and EG have the larger rear forks.

Yes, the EK had the smaller forks.

I had some custom made and they misread my specs, ended up giving me the smaller EK forks.

I've you're having Hotbits make you dampers, have them use the specs from when the made the set for my Integra. I think it was their EG fronts, EK rears with EF forks. Ended up getting coil bind with their standard springs, they sent me slightly longer units and it fixed the problem.

I can look up everything if you need me to.
