Rear Disc Conversion

I was reading this on fourthgenhatch.com and it seems fairly easy.
How easy is it?

And all I need to get for the swap is the trailing arm and everything that is bolted onto it, right?

Re: Rear Disc Conversion

As long as your bolts are not siezed up in the bushings, a few hours. If they are siezed, ha, good luck.

Thanks guys.

I think I may take a trip to the junkyard sometime soon to get my parts. Will the e-brake cables currently in my crx work or do I have to get the ones from the donor rex?

Why can't I use the stock ones in my HF?

I may be able to get you an extra set, but i gotta wait for the guy to give in to letting me rip it apart.

im almost positive that you need the cables from a 88-91 crx that came with disc brakes.

everything else can be from the crx or the 2g integra.

Before you put the swap in your ride, I owuld suggest getting new trailing arm bushings before you do the conversion. This will save you handling and alignment problems in the future. I've done the conversion on my CRX and Del Sol and within a year the bushings were ripped apart from normal cornering and driving. Go to www.suspension.com and get the set for $100.00. They will take any abuse you put on them, plus makes hard cornering sick.
