according to helms the front lca/uca look exactly the same. is there any differecnce between the two in addition to the damper forks. how do they differ?

**edited** - are the front's different in any way?

 

Only difference I know of are the rear LCA's have holes for a swaybar on the DC. They are interchangable though. Not sure about the dampening fork ?

 

dc-r rear lca's use a different type of shock mount (eye and bolt instead of fork).

most eg rear lca's do not have holes for sway bars. all dc's have provisions for a rear bar

 

sorry, titled edited. i was wondering how the FRONT lca/uca's differ between EG and DC.

 

upper control arms are the same for the EG/DC

EK's have a different setup.




....to the best of my knowledge.

 

thanks. how about the front lca's?

 

Front suspension is exactly the same between a DC and EG. I had a complete Integra front suspension on my hybrid. Integra LCA's, spindle/hub assembly and upper A arms, I even used the Integra rear engine subframe (needed it to mount the Integra rack). If your civic doesn't have a front sway bar (like my CX) your LCA's won't have a hardpoint/hole to attach one, but they're the same shape/size, just like the rear setup. The entire rear assembly is interchangeable too.

 

thank you. that's the answer i was looking for! :thumbup:

 

yup. The front LCAs aren't identical, but theyre interchangable. The sole difference being swaybar mounting hole.
