Default [B]eg w/ rear disc conversion trouble find correct struts for R&R[/B]

So the rear disc conversion came with Tein adjustable coil overs. The lower mount is a bushing style/eyelet. (See Pics) Most everything I have been looking at are a fork style lower mount.

Spent some time yesterday at my part supplier going thru their system and looking thru all the Acura and Honda strut pictures on the computer there.

Came across some for a Legend that appear to be the design I need. Anyone know if they will work or are they going to be a different length dimension?

You need 1996-2000 civic struts . If you wanted to go back to factory, you'd have to change the lower control arms out to the earlier model.

Wont work without modification the shock mount bushings. 92-95 is wider then the 96-00.


I'm honestly confused on what you are asking. Those are ITR shocks/lower control arms (aka eyelet)

You need ITR shocks. I had complete ITR suspension under my 92 Civic Si.
Item number 9
