Default Rear Disc Swap Done

So, I am attempting to post this in hopes that people will use the search function and get some info. My rear disc swap is finally complete. My car is a 90 DX Hatch. I used 91 DA Integra trailing arms. The rear brake hoses were off the Integra as well. The Ebrake cables were off of a 2 door integra. Worked perfectly. I used the 40/40 prop valve. All new wheel bearings, pads and rotors. The trailing arms were easily pressed in and out after I found the correct clocking angle. The Compensator arms, upper control arms and lower control arms were for the EF. This is not a tough job at all. I am spoiled with lifts and tons of tools, but still, I think someone with basic knowledge would have no issues.





Here's all my part numbers. The pad part number is an Akebono number. My favorite brake pad company. The lower rear arms were Skunk2, I just ordered them for the EF.




And the donor car, for good measure.

The AK isn't airsoft, it's got the polymer kit installed.

I'd rather hurt thieves with my hands and legs. Cause then i'd get charged with attempted murder if i had a gun.

hey-what link/source did you get all the integra brake stuff from?
Did you purchase it online from someone?
I've got the master cylinder, brake booster, and prop. valve from a dc integra. All I need is the rear components. Thx for posting your list of stuff needed and the part numbers-very helpful.

Did you order it all offline??

I bought the parts car and took it all off of that (as you can see in the pic). I didn't do the booster or master cylinder. My braking is great. The all new bushings really make it feel alot better too.

Nope. It was in a drunk driving related accident. The whole front was hammered. The car ran but it was a high mileage motor and I like my MPG.
