swapped rear discs off a 92 integra
rear toe is off 1.4 degrees
was i suppose to swap one of the arms or what?

 

bring into a auto shop and get alighnment ,or you can string it and do it yourself

 

no, you need to get an alignment. you cant expect a whole new trailing from another car to be exactly the same alignment.

 

Do some research but if I remember correctly your supposed to use the EFs LCAs!

No you can use the integra lca's BUT you do have to use the compensator arms off of the EF they are what adjusts the toe in and toe out they are longer on the intergra and also if you would have unbolted those from the trailing arm instead of the body you may not have needed an alignment.

I have the same issue with my EF. I swapped everything from a DA. Can I just get a camber kit to remedy the compensator arm. My rear wheels look like there going inward. Somebody help

 

Just got done with this swap myself and had the same exact problem. Integra compensator arms are too short, sucking the wheels in. Use the EF compensator arms and get the allignment set. You'll be golden like a shower.

Camber kit wouldnt help considering thats for camber and you have a toe problem either get the stock compensator arms or they do make adjustable compensator arms (not sure who makes them, where to get them, or price) but best bet just get a set of the original compensator arms hell I may even have a set

 

also if its lowered get a camber kit

Well depending on how low you go I would say anything less than 1.5" you dont but anything more you should.

ok thats what i did wrong
i work at a dealership alignments are free
i said it was off 1.4 degrees did people not get i already had the car on the alignment rack or what

 

I replaced the DA with my stock EF compensator arms. Mo' Betta! Good lookin out!

 

this thread is quite informative so im resurrecting it since im having the same issue

Summary:
-DA rear LCA's (for use with DA swaybar)
-Integra RTA's
--Need to use EF civic compensator arm (toe arm at front of RtA) to allow for proper toe
because the DA one is too short!

 

To put it in simple terms: Mess with the suspension, and you mess with the alignment.

They measure your alignment in tenths of degrees and 1/16ths of an inch. It's pretty hard to get it exactly where it originally was.

 

Thanks for contributing absolutely nothing to this thread.

 

Um wtf, that was a very informative post.

Ur pic is stupid. So was your useless post.

 

agreed

 

i dont even need to read the rest:

Bet you used the integra toe arms. your supposed to use your ef toe arms for the correct toe. the other toe arms are too short

 

Nice job. If you bothered to read the thread you would see that this was already determine to be the cause and it was determined over 2 years ago. You're just a bit late.

 

Looks like you are the one not contributing anything to the thread. And if you had bothered to look carefully, I didn't dredge this thread up, there is a post before mine.

 

nope didnt try

 

EF toe link: 17cm
DC/DA toe link: 14cm
EF/DC/DA/EG LCA: 34cm (end to end holes, shock mount is further inboard on DA lca which doesnt affect alignment)

fWIW
