IM WORKING ON AN 02 CIVIC FOR MY BUDDY AND ITS A REAL BITCH THERE IS NO UPPER CONTROL ARMS AND THE TIE RODS CONNECT TO THE STRUT SO THEY DONT MAKE CYLIDERS FOR IT AND THE STRUT TURNS WHEN TURNING AND ITS CONNECTED TO THE SPINDLE WHICH IS CAST METAL SO I CANT WELD ON IT. SO DONT BUY ONE OF THEM I CANT MAKE IT EVAN CLOSE TO LAYIN. IF ANYBODY HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE IM ALL EARS

I cut my strut towers out and made custom towers but im still running cylinders to. its not to hard to do just time consuming

I'm running a straight axle with a 4 link in the back. Was alot easier then atempting to mess with the irs and now I'll have no camber. For the front I cut out part of the top strut perchs for my control arms to come threw but now they've binded up. Once I make control arms she will lay. Only problem is now I have to section the oil and tranny pan right away.
