i got a set of tokico illuminas, i have a 93 cx. when i put the back in the lca and the shock dont line up? do i need to buy the integra lca or no? tryed searching and found nothing on my question. doing right now so i need help asap thanks.

 

are you saying the bolt dont go thru?

 

yes the bolt is not lined up right, to go through the bottom of the shock and the lca part

 

it just doesnt line up, i tryed pulling the shock up but thats kinda hard,

 

you would have to wiggle the lca around so that the bolt will meet the thread part. or you can use a cresent wrench and put it around the lca and turn the lca so the holes will line up. am i making any sense?

 

no not really, but the stock lca's from my civic will work just fine right? i dotn have to get integ ones?

 

Are the struts for a civic or for an integra? If there for a civic there should be no reason for them not to line up.

 

Is your E brake up? If its up its harder to move the LCA around. Take off your e brake, have the car in gear and try to move the LCA to fit right
