Re: rear disc brake lines

Yes, you use the Teg lines. You can't use the stock lines can you? I thought the ones for the drums were screw in, while the caliper lines have a banjo end?

And what "Hex" bolts are you talking about? I remember some Torx bolts to take the hubs off, but you don't have to do that, just keep your control arms and toe adjustment arm, thats where the difference is between the Teg and civic arms. The Teg control arms are just slightly longer than the civics, so it will throw your alignment out. Now if you did get it off an older car and your trailing arm bushings are better, yea, go ahead and change out the hubs, that how I did it because of the bushings.

The torx bolts can be a PITA though. If you end up stripping them out, you can take a slightly undersized socket and try hammering it over the head of the bolt then hit it with an impact. Then ofcourse go over to a vise and beat the bolt out of your socket.
