Default Suspension problem... please help

Here's the deal. I've got an 88 Civic DX that I'm putting a B16 into to. When I tried to remove the stock axles, the LCA bolt that goes into the crossmember seized. I can't get the POS out of there, and I've bent the mounting point up nicely trying.

Now, I have all of the suspension off of my 89 CRX Si lying in the garage. Can I replace all of the front suspension with the CRX stuff? Is it just a bolt in? The DX shocks are crappy and worn out too, while the CRX ones are in nice shape. Anyone done this before?

4x4ish is good

I guess I'll start swapping it over. Thanks!
