Anyone Using Honda Crx rear Springs
 

rear honda crx springs on front 1303 struts(topline lowering struts) will it work tryn to get 17x7 inch ADR's under stock fenders (disc brake conv yes ) just lookn for a cheaper solution MAXX STRUTS too much $$$$$ right now any help would be great THANX FOR YOUR TIME!!! Bob C :silly: :silly:

me.......

crx springs, spring perches,
civic rubber donut thingys

on my 1302 strut.

allowed me to go 205/45/17 with a 17x7 et42. no problems.

put the rubber donut on the spring perch of your strut. weld the crx spring perch on your upper spring plate. install honda spring inbetween and voila your done. i actually welded the honda spring perch a little offset to allow more clearance for tire/rim. i bet i could put a 215 tire on it. i have my strut on its lowest setting.

anyways, hope this helps.
any more questions? just ask.

THANX ALOT!!!! thats what i wanted to hear do you know if the acura springs are the same someone told me they should be the same crx civic integra THANX AGAIN Bob c

i believe the civic and integra springs will have a harder ride. the crx is the lighter car of the 3 so i fell they should be soft enough for the front of the bug. it is tight and seems pretty good.

im looking to do the civic or crx springs as well..my friend has a civic hatchback, i think its an early 90's and i was wondering if his rear springs would work? im trying to do this on a budget until i can save up for the maxx's or something unless this seems to work good, also, pete could you give me some pics of your suspension? youre the only one i know of that's done this and i want to see what it looks like, thanks

i am also interested in using crx springs untill i can save up for the max struts and was wondering what year crx i need to find to use

I don't believe the year CRX the springs come off will make a difference!! and if you paste the http:// from petevw's signature it should bring you to pics of his setup hope this helps

year does not matter. they only made them for like 3 yrs.

pete,

:p

i am running 205/40/17's on the front of my 1302. no problems. i have to get this picture stuff figured out. it has a rear crx spring on the strut. i don't know the difference between the diameters. i'll have to measure. the honda spring is much smaller.

thanks pete !! :agree:
