EF/DA Front LCA question/idea.
Back story:
I'm currently running complete ITR front knuckles on my 89 civic.
Everything fit fairly well, however due to the different geometry of the knuckle, I am barely able to get 2" of clearance on my header collector. If I raise it any higher, I get +ive static camber.
It is low enuff that I am tucking a 205/40/16 tire in the front.
The idea/question:
Are Prelude/Accord/Legend front LCAs any longer than the EF/DA LCAs?
If so, will they bolt up to the EF/DA subframe and knuckles?

That would require new bearings and some machining to maintain the current setup so to speak.
I'd rather find a combo of stock or slightly modded parts that allows myself and others to run stock DC knuckles on a DA/EF chassis with a sane ride height.
Also, if you check out the toyota/nissan scene, you'll notice that lengthened FLCAs are quite common for a variety of reasons.

Currently running S2 FUCAs set to maximum -ive camber.

I've also been searching online for lca compatibility for my ED I need/want longer ones. I have positive camber on my front right with adjustable ucas maxed out to offset the positive camber. But I still have a little bit of positive camber. The caster is playing in affect it's way off and needs to be corrected after I do that and lower the car it should all correct itself. Then I'll be looking at my hx wheels wanting better fitment and I thing longer lcas are a good way to avoid using spacers.
