    Default question about suspension for a 96 civic

    I have a 96 civic and a friend has a ej1/eg civic with coilovers for sale..
    He said if I get diff bushings(integra) for my lower control arms ill be able to use his suspension, since he teg bushings won't stick out as much and that tthey should fit into my lower conrol arm w.o any problems...

    I was gonna put my coil overs from my 96 to my ej1. I think he's right about the bushing because I was gonna have to shave mine. Should fit with a little tweaking

    if the coilovers are wider than your current control arms, just add spacers accordingly on both sides.

    this is what you do. there should be a write up some where on the web that shows you what to do and where to get the spacers. also i think that you can use lca from a 92-95 civic on yours but dont quote me on that. i wouldnt replace the bushings but thats me.
