Quick Tip Rear Trailing Arm - Don't screw up your car when doing a disc brake swap

Are you able to install rsx wheel hub to make 5 lug conversion on that trailing arm set up??

so does it have to bolt to ek trailing arm only or will it also bolt up to 1991 dx trailing arm?

Any differences between the coupes and sedans? 2dr/4dr ? I have ej sedan, can I use 2dr rear disc brake trailing arms?

2000 ek 4 door what trailing arms should I use if none available from a dc2

What calipers do you use ?

What do you recommend for my Sedan 90 ef please?

Does anyone sell new rear spindles? I want to use them for the poor man’s five lug conversion

Nice ok just so everyone is clear we can use 96-00 civic (ek) trailing arms and ether 90-93 or 93-00 integra (da or dc2) spindles if you cant find the whole trailing arm or there trashed?

Is anyone having this issue after doing rear disk conversion. Right side e break cable seems to be pulled up more than the left when applying the e break ? Also the right rear caliper seems to show more wear then the left rear caliper. ( 00 civic lx sedan with 98 integra Ls trailing arm and Em1 E break cables )

Oh wow that is very interesting. If I knew this I would have just gotten the dc2 spindle on my 97 ek trailing arm instead of sourcing the entire arm 😑

This is what we needed in the early and mid 2000's lol damn it

I have a 96 ek hatch and I for my 2000 integra coupe trailing arms what e brake cables do I use

I was wondering what do I need to get to do a rear disk swap on a 2004 civic lx (es1,em2) ? Any advice would be grateful ‼️

You just saved me a lot of money with your older video. Thank you!

Just broke loose those T50 bolts on the rear spindle on a 1990 Acura Integra. I lmixed some ATF transmission fluid with some acetone (50/50) mix and let it soak in for 2 days, cleaned up the area and then applied heat to the bolts with a propane torch, dwell time approx 30 seconds and then used a 15" breaker bar. Worked quite well.

Hey! I have a EF civic, I hit a curb years back and bent my passenger rear trailing arm, my buddy had another one laying around and we installed it, I noticed a ways back that my wheel was sticking further out. We must have used a DA trailing arm, not realizing it. So the knuckle I need to use is a DC (94-01) ? Just wanting to clarify, as I really don’t want to have to replace the entire trailing arm. Thanks!

Hey please school me how can you tell what transmission you have???

I looked through the comments but nobody seems to have asked yet. What are the torque specs for the t50 and the 24mm nut?

Nice

Can you buy the Integra spindle, hub, rotor and caliper at autozone?

Question.
Why is disk and caliper better than drum?

Why cant i just put disk brakes on the back without geting new trailing arms?

Thanks for the video im about to do this conversation on my 99 dx hatch.i have the trailing arms from dc2 .my question here can i used my stock master ,booster and proportioning valve?

Why not use a 99-00 civic si rear disc brakes???

So I got rear spindles from a DA, but I'm missing one of the calipers. Can I use a DC caliper on a DA spindle? (Going on my 89 Civic si)
Also, can I use an EF wheel hub on a DA spindle?

What about 99-00 EM1 rear trailing arms on eg hatch? Will it widen rear track width?

Ever measure the wagon awd trailing arm mounting surface depth?

hello , im from spain and we dont have the integra model and the market of parts here of integra is inexistent , i want to swap in to disc brake but i dont know if there is any other model, i know that exist a swap kit for the EG but i dont know if the knuckles (arms) arethe same as my car (civic ej8 1.6 sr)
anyone knows?

Do you know what rear toe link I’m suppose to use if I do the disc brake conversion on an ef sedan?

thanks, is there a 5 lug conversion thats as easy for ek?

Am I late? I'm here now with a like and sub!

Going with fcs trailing arms

Thank you. Would a Civic EG del sol rear disk trailing arms fit a Civic EG ones?

Seems like a lot of extra and confusing work. I used cheap Scarebird brackets and all brand new parts from my local auto parts store. The conversion took all of two hours and I have a parking brake again.

What rotors and calipers would fit this setup, do I need da/90-93 integra ones and if so what ebrake cable fit those

Hi! Does this mean I can just find that part and use it on my original EK trailing arm without swapping it with a DC2 one on?

is the trailing arms that come in the 95 Civic Ex ABS the same as the integra? Mine has a gnarly bend on it from a previous accident, I’ve been looking to replace it

What about 96 del sol si trailing arms

So just to make sure, I can use the DA spindle, dust plate and hub right onto my ek trailing arm that has a current drum set up?

Noted Eg spindle smaller fha DC the hub won't fit

Will a 2001 gsr rear brake fit on a 90 ef

thanks for the tip

I found a rear trailing arm off an integra but the metal around the 24mm spindle nut is pretty much rusted out. Would the remaining 4 T50 screws in the front be durable enough to drive on?

I got trailing arms from a 4 door integra, Will the e-brake cables from a 4 door integra work on a 95 civic coupe. Or do I have to have the cables from a 2 door integra???

I have done a disc conversion on my 92 del sol using 88 CRX trailing arms they shouldn’t be a problem right?

Can I take the spindles off my 90-93 arms and put them on my stick EF rear disks? Basically just swap everything over to keep the stock geometry? I wish I knew this before I put DAs on my track car, no wonder it rubs with 205/50s. Please let me know! Thank you

You made those torx seem like quick work. Hah. Yeaaaa

Hey Brian, I have a 91 EF that i did the rear conversion with DA trailing arms and yes, the rear is wider now. However, I bought new discs, calipers, and brake pads for the DA set up and im short on cash and im looking to re-use those. Could I go to the salvage yard and get DC or EK trailing arms and use the spindle and brake set up from my DA arms on the EK or DC?

Crazy feels like theres allot of lil secrets with these hondas im still learning about everyday, its awesome
