1990 rear shocks on 2000 integra
 
I want to put my 1990 rear shocks on my 2000 integra. Will it fit.

I searched other forums and some people say they do some say they dont.

Can somebody tell me.


thanks

90-93 rear struts are longer than 94-01. i had dc struts on my da, and my back sagged.
it will work but you will be putting more stress on the shock causing it to blow prematurely.

----. alright thx. Will the DC be okay with the DA struts though

im quite sure the back will be raised as long as the struts are good. also it'll be a little harder to install but nth imposible.

ok. will the front struts from a da fit on the front on a dc with no problem. or are we talking about the same situatation as the back struts.

D.T.P 12-14-2009 02:55 PM

the fronts will fit. may need to use your dc forks. not a big deal, just 2 bolts that have to be taken off.
even though i was running eg front forks on da and now i got dc forks on...so i dont know. people always mention this but never actually had to do it myself.

K this is what I want to do.

1.take off the front struts/shocks/springs from my DA and put them on my DC

2.put the DC front shocks/struts/springs on my DA.

So what your sayig is if i want to put the DC ones on my DA, ill need DC forks. BUT, if I put the DA ones on the DC i wont need forks. Just a simple swap??

lol sorry man, im kinda confuised

I think he's saying... keep the forks from the recipient car just swap shock and spring...

Few people told me that if you use DC struts on DA you will need DA forks and vice versa.

So that would mean DA fork stays on DA and DC fork stays on DC.

I compared DC/DA/EG forks they all looked the same and they all worked.

yea im just going to get your springs and put them on my dc.
