you might have gotten tokico shocks for other than a ef chassis...post the part numbers located on the front shocks and google search what vehicle they are from...once you find the matching vehicle, find yourself a set of front forks that match the shocks and use them on your civic...!!!

the previous owner used EG forks to fit EG shocks in the front. youll need EF forks to match your EF shocks.
