    Default CRX vs Civic Struts/Springs

    Are hatch and CRX Springs and Struts the same?

    I'm trying to pick up a set, but the ones I want just are LISTED as civic. Will they still fit? Whats the difference?

    Thanks for your input, guys.

    They will fit...

    ALOT of companies list CRx and Civic springs to be exactly the same, and have the same part numbers. But...other companies took the extra step to change the spring rates between the two cars as one is SLIGHTLY stiffer than the other.

    So to answer, there's a little difference between them (I think it's in the front, only?) but they will fit.

    Like joker said crx=civic. I might add 88s have different rear LCA so rear shocks are different on 88 then 89-91.
