Check the way the rear shock mounts to the LCA.
88 CRX's may have the 'eye' style shock while the 89 has 'fork' style mounts.

If they LCA's haven't been changed, it should have the funky 88 style fork. But does the OP have coilover sleeves or full coilovers?

Just clarifying - That would be the funky 'eye' mount... not fork.

Correct, so you would need to switch over to 89-91 style LCAs.
