Default 90-91 Teg Complete Knuckle Swap onto 91 crx HF ????

ok heres what i have...i went to a couple performance shops and they said since my car is an HF i would need DX/SI knuckle hubs....well they looked at my car and said since my tires have a camber to them cause i used lowering springs...they said i could get the 90-91 Integra Knuckle swap....they said use the A-Frame Arms all the way down...so i went to the junk yard today and got the Complete Knuckle swap....got the calipers and all...its off a 91 Integra LS....They told me since i would be using the Teg Suspension Knuckles that it would correct my camber to near perfect or Damn close.....2 shops told me this....

Is this Correct ?

im using a 91 teg I-Shaft with 91 teg axles

thanks

well some people claim it will throw off your suspension geometry, it may do it for the better? it may not. if you do put those on your car, you need to go get an alingnment by a professional and please let us know what he says...

i think im going to put them on....i think when people say they throw the suspension off is when it is stock ride height. now if it is lowered as in my car with a camber on my tires i think the longer A-Frame arm actually straightens up the camber some....i be sure to take lots of pictures of the installation when i do this...time for a good write up too...well for now ill see what happens but if anyone else can give me some input let me know....

I would think the knuckle is longer, but hell, since you already have the parts try it and let us know

you could use EX knuckles for front brakes that are the same rotor and caliper of the teg with the dx/si knuckles.

I have read alot about this setup and almost everyone says that the integra suspension will screw up your suspension. I think you need to use the civic EX to do it correctly. Oh and look at the link below I have a set for sale. $150.00. :Phttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&category=33564&item=24 15241296

This is a thread from Honda Tech when I was looking.

well see i also have the A-frame Arm and also my car is lowered and my tires stick out cause i have bad camber.....i was told that since i have the camber from my car being lowered that it would straighten out my tires.....but if my tires were aligned the way there supposed to be i heard it would throw them off....i dont know...im gonna put one side on and see what happens...if it straightens it out and works...im using it...if it ***** my ---- up ill be searching the junkyards again for 90-91 civic EX stuff....
