I need new shocks on my 96 prelude and a buddy has some coilovers he pulled off of a later 90's model accord he would sell me for cheap. I know accords and preludes are very similar and i was thinking i could use those coilovers. But i just wanted to make sure b4 i bought them and put them on. Could anyone tell me for sure????

 

Anyone?

 

Check the part #'s from the manufacturer.

 

I believe the fronts will fit, not the rears though.

 

what year accord? I believe 94-01 should fit, cause after that, I believe the shock structure changed

 

im not sure on the year, i just know its a later 90's model by the look of it. but with that info im thinking it will work. Thanks

 

I think 94-97 are gonna be the best ones as far as fitting. I called Gabriel just to confirm and the tech that I spoke with said that the only difference was the Accord version is about 3/4 of an inch shorter. So ,if you are low it might give you a little more suspension travel back.Might be a good thing to try out one day.
