Default Upper control arm.

Hello, I need to replace my right (passenger) upper control arm and I was wondering if the 1996-2000 civic would fit my 98 gsr?

EK Upper arms will not fit on your Teg, the only interchangable arms are EG Civic (92-95) and Del Sol (93-97).

Called the junkyard to see if they have a 94-00 integra or 92-95 civic upper control arm and they said in their 'computers' that the parts were not interchangable. I'm assuming that they are wrong? Are the left and right control arms exactly alike? Cause I found one on ebay but it's the left one... Thanks in advance

No, left and right are not interchangable.

If you want, I have a pair of upper arms with an Ingalls camber kit installed. They're direct replacements, OEM parts, and the ball joints are both good.

I want $200 for the pair, let me know if you're interested.

Otherwise, go to a Japanese Used Auto Importer and they should have them for around $50/side used OEM.

The upper control arms are not the same but you can interchange them from left to right and vice versa. The effect is more caster, I believe. You don't want to go that route unless you do the equvalent to the other side, otherwise, your alignment will be completely messed up.
