CRX HF damper fork to small for B-series axle?
I ran into some problem when I was finishing my B16 swap into an 89 HF. I changed the complete hub assembly with a DA Integra because the B-series axle won’t fit the HF hub. The problem is when I try installing the lower control arm. The damper fork seems too small and it hits the axle when I try bolting the damper pinch bolt. I tried bolting the pinch bolt 1st but then the lower ball joint won’t align. Did anyone run into the same problem like I did? Do I just change my damper fork with an DA Integra one? Any information will be helpful.
are you sure the forks are on the right sides? they have a bend in them to clear the axle maybe they are on the wrong sides? also if you want you can upgrade to the da forks, they are wider and let you pull the axle through without having to take the fork off

I never took off the fork/suspension in the 1st place so it's on the right side. I will probably up grade to the DA Fork to see if that works.
I was just wondering if the HF used a smaller fork since the axle is smaller compare to Si/DX.
