8th civic springs will work on the 9th civic if you run the 8th civic upper rear isolators. You have to remove the plastic inner section of the isolators, but that's simple.

What kit did you go with?

 

[Winnn420]

Why do you have to cut the center out like that?

d2 8th gen i had to order another part from d2 for the front link its coming in today ill take pic of it as soon as i get it

 

[BrandneW]

becuase the center plastic goes in towards the chassis and it wont fit correctly thats a 8th gen insolater you have cut it to make it fit

 

[Winnn420]

ahh that makes sense...just wondering before I went cutting away, thanks.


Alaina,

did you get a chance to take a pic of the 8th & 9th gen springs side by side? if the noise turns out to be a result of my mechanics stupididty I will never let him live that down.
