CRX and Civic HB suspension
 
I am swapping everything from my CRX Si over to a 1991 Civic HB. I was wondering if all of my suspension components will transfer over (H&R sport springs, struts, etc.). I have searched on here and on H-T and nothing comes up. Thanks in advance.

everything bolts together

if you are changing to rear discs you need DA E-brake cables though, CRX's arent long enough

nah Ill be leaving the rear brakes drum. I should have mentioned that its an 88 CRX, I know they built the 88 CRX's a little differently aka tranny spline count :-X. I dont know if that would cause the suspension to be different though!

the rear LCA's are diff, you have to use 88 shox w/ 88 LCA's
but if you are swapping everything to your hatch you are fine they bolt up to the car and trailing arms the same

alright cool, now that Ive got that figured out. What about the front bumpers, will they fit or will it be a little off?

they can be made to work, IMO, not worth the hassle

since the rear shox are coming from the 88 CRX you MUST use the 88 CRX lower control arms
there is no mods needed, the 88 control arms are a true bolt in affair, just swap them with the shox


front is the same for both cars
