Default EF 88-91 JDM LCA's

Ok, open discussion, what LCA's are available from the JDM motherland specifically ... or .. can fit the EF?

Rear LCA's are the same fitment as any ED/EE/EF. Even tho on the EDM VT and JDM SiR they are visually different. They are interchangeable.

With the front you have no options that I know of. Altho I have seen pictures of custom aluminum CNC'd arms (similar to function 7 design), those were a one-off project.

What about known JDM manufacturers of LCA's for the EF?

SSR is a South East Asian company, right? Humm, I know the SSR EG LCA's fit the EF, it's been done before.. any other input?

Thanks for the reply!

EF and EG rear LCA's are indeed interchangeable. But that depends on the swaybar application.

Be very careful. Some of the LCA's are shorter. They claim to "fix" camber issue. But all they do is change the tracking width of the rear suspension. But not the front. Good luck having your car aligned after that.

I was referring to the SRR's, since you said the LCA's may vary in size due to "camber correction".

EG and ED/EE/EF arms are the same. They have different types. So the problem is with the arms, and not the car they are going on.

However, not all cars have rear sway bars, or mounting points in the same location. So that needs some attention. But still not any problem to modify with minimal effort.

Yeah, the sway bar is an issue if it does mount to the LCA itself. Of course, the ST swaybars mount on their on bracket on the shock, so... that wont be an issue.

Is SRR Malaysian?

I dont see how the "JDM" versions of the LCA's would be any different than the USDM ones. I mean it is stock. Lame ****. Go aftermarket.


I am gonna rock these in a few weeks.
