Default Quick suspension question

Ok I took the stock suspension off and ek coupe at the junk yard and put it directally on my ef hatch with nooooo mods. Ok I just got some eg/dc blackworks rear lower control arms and the middle bushing is not fittin it has about 1/4 inch of play... Am I crazy or is something not matching???

makes sense, the rear shock off an EK coupe doesnt fit.... by about a 1/4 inch.

i really dont recommend even using the front suspension from an EK on an EF. things arent the right dimensions. but im curious to see how it works out....

I've been riding on ek suspension 4 about a year now. No problem. Got it aligned and I was good! No prob. I just used aftermarket lower control arms and used the ek front fork.only diffrence between the forks is the diameter of the the shock mount.
