Will EG shocks & springs fit 4G??

Post by SiR-CUE »

Just a quick question,
Will front Shocks & Springs from a Civic EG fit a Civic 4G if I change lower forks??

Any Advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

the forks are slightly wider on ef shocks, so with a grinder took a small amount off the lca so the eg shocks fitted, and when i put ef shocks back on it just use small washers. makes them interchangable. not tried eg ones on the front before

but if your just fitting fronts, the front will sit higher than the back.

Well, i had some EG9 VTi front shocks,
wanted to fit them in 4g GL,
Tried fitting, but for some reason didnt fit,
the tyres were touching the springs/ shocks.

BUT doesnt matter Now, as i didnt get any positive info,
so I didnt bother messing around with it too much.
