press your old ball joint out of your old knuckle and the put it in the new knuckle...the ball joints themselves are the same, its the threaded part were you bolt the nut on that is different

while your at it did you check if your axles will go in onto the hub? cant really tell if there he same size, but i agree with boots your going to have to change the lower control arms. and also you rear lower control are is different. gl

Something I certainly wouldnt want to be going 100mph in. Good luck tapering the hole to the correct pitch...I'm sure it will be ok, but I wouldnt be driving on it personally.

For a 5 lug conversion in the front of an integra you just need us itr hubs and a 5 lug rotor of your choice. Running jap hubs is stupid, you can no longer buy axles at any honda dealer or auto parts store.

Those steering knuckles are not from an Integra, the USDM and JDM both took the same knuckle and ball joint. Based on that caliper and knuckle, I bet that knuckle is from a Prelude (97-01)
