Front Shock Fork Question
My buddy KEN has a 91Si Hatch and he has a bent Front Shock Fork , along with this he has a ITR Swap which includes a five lug conversion and with the suspension he has ITR Shocks and Struts and also TEIN S-Tech Springs on his Suspension will He need to use only the ITR Front Fork for this to work or can he use a 99 SI Front Shock Fork??? What are his options!!!
ITR?
99SI?
ITR?
99SI?
You mean the holes don't line up on the fork type of bend?
Denny and I fuxed up his front fork to where the holes don't line up. We got 2 long *** pipes. 1 pipe goes through the hole where the shock sits to hold the piece steady.Then we stick one side of the fork into another pipe, lift it and bent it back to normal. Everything lined up fine afterwards

The ITR and SI forks should be the same, but they're different from the original fork on his 91. When I put ITR shocks on my 90 Civic Wagon I had to get EG front shock forks because the shocks are larger in diameter and would not fit in the EF shcok forks. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
.....everything posted above is correct.
I examined and compared the stock ef/ si setup vs my itr setup.
To use itr specific springs and shocks, you will need the shocks/ springs + top hats and front forks. For the rear, you will need the shocks/ springs + top hats and rear lower control arms. EVERYTHING bolts right up. (With a LOT of elbow grease.....)
Wow, the EF still isn't as stiff as I'd like though.....
