    You could also use an '88 CRX LCA. I am using a DC2 rear shock assembly on my LeMons '91 Civic Hatch.

    the 01-05 civics read struts are really short and didn't kno if they would fit

    Yeah, the rear shocks do look quite short. Get one and try it out?

    great idea!:cool:I happen to have the parts except I'm comparing using a '89 rear shx.
    Your idea should work.:confused:The thing you may need to do is flip the wgn spring(upside down).This should make it fit on the sleeve better too.The EP3 perch is for a larger dia. spring.
    You'll need the ebay sleeve cause the drop you'll get will be 3-4"(75-100mm).Great if you're lookin for a crazy drop.
