in the rear?

Also what year car do you have? If its a 88 you need Type R

If its 89-91 then yes you can use 92 civics.

Hope that answers your question

pretty sure you can stick any 89-95 civic rear lca's on a 88 rex. or any 94-01 tegs lcas and everything should work fine as long as you have 89+ rear shocks.

not 100% positive though. if someone else could confirm it, that would be good.

LOL yeah cheap parts never fit right. OEM or legit aftermarket is the best.

Glad you got it figured out.
