The hubs should be the same, but you'll need to remove the dust covers from the DX hubs (if they're still attached). The spline count and depth should be the same.
While you're under there, why not just replace the knuckles and brakes with Integra components? Integra -> CRX brake swap « Madness Shop Manual |
Thanks for the input on the header wrap...As for the Teggy knuckles and brakes, I has planned on doing this once the engine and interior is finished when I do the full suspension overhaul (bushings, skunk2 coilovers, teggy knuckles/brakes on the front and back [rear disc conversion], master/slave cylinders, stainless lines, kyb gas adjustables, front and rear upper and lower supports, trailing arms, sway bars, camber kits, and a few others that I can't think of now)...This will probably be done around Aug. as I need to get a job/monies as my last 300 will be going into my exhaust, halfshafts, and new carpet so I can install my interior that I got off of Bam.
