I found some 94-97 accord wagon front spindles/knuckles with new brakes and wheel bearings. Since those are the 11" brakes, can I just bolt up the spindles/knuckles to my 96 accord coupe? The brakes on mine are shot, so it would be a nice upgrade.

 

If it's a 4-cyl then you should be able to swap it over. The hubs and bearings are the same, the difference is in the rotor and caliper. However, any V6 components through the hub are different and cannot interchange.

 

If you are going to change the knuckle, the rotor, and hubs from the wagon, then you will also need the caliper bracket as well because yours won't fit the bigger rotor. And your caliper won't work on the new bracket, so get the calipers also.

And while you are at it and have access to a wagon, you might want to get the rear calipers as well since they have 38mm pistons instead of the 34mm of the sedan. Since you are going with a bigger rotor on the front, a little more brake on the rear might balance things out. But make sure they are really the 38mm ones because some mechanics will simply replace the rears with whatever the part store has in stock.

 

Thanks for the advice. It comes with calipers, brackets, rotors, etc... So all I really need to do is bolt on the knuckle as an assembly with all the brakes.

I will check on those rear calipers, it certainly doesn't hurt to go bigger for the rear brakes also.

 

V6 Sedan, Wagon and Odyssey use a larger wheel bearing and caliper.

Don't bother changing the rear calipers. The wagon does use a larger rear piston(38mm), but this is for bias as the wagon needs more rear brake for the added cargo capacity. Front calipers use the same piston diameters. Only rotor diameter is increased 20mm ~3/4".
