I still don't see how that cures the bolt spacing issues on the ED6 knuckles.

Are you referring to 5th gen Civics (EG?EH)?

Just to clarify. What spindle do you need to run on a crx to make it worth while. I just picked up the DA front spindles and now am having second thoughts after reading this.

90-91 EX, don't worry about it if you just want a drag vehicle.

I don't know what would be different on the spindles. Is an arm longer on one of them or something. Could it be corrected with something else if it really was a problem.

The DA spindles are about 1/4" taller than the EF?ED spindles. This in turn causes a more aggressive negative camber curve.
