It's so satisfying watching the car take shape , well done lads keep it up ! 👏🏼😎
+Jon W thank you Jon it's getting there!
yerrrrrr
I used the buddyclub extended ball joints and within 8 months of daily street and highway use the rubber boots started showing cracks. I hope these true heart have rubber or silicone boots.
I already did my front ball joints. I also put in new control arms with Polyurethane bushings. I used the Black series; they have graphite in them so they wont squeak. Up next is the rear control arms. That ball joint joint tool can be a pain, if you smack the tip of the old joint with a hammer they pop out.
I had some TruHart ball joints fail on my within 500 miles of driving. They have poor quality-control. Just wanted you to know, be aware. Hopefully the car will be on a track rather than an interstate. You should really be replacing all your bushings since you're going to the trouble of replacing everything else. I would have gone with SPC or Buddy Club ball joints rather than the cheap, crappy TruHarts. Hope they work well for you.
There is actual adapters made for 88-00 civic for the power built balljoint tool I bought it on eBay it was $12.
I see this videos a few years old but just FYI your slotted rotors are on incorrectly ... the slots sweep towards the front of your car instead of the back .
great video project civic is really coming along
+Curtis Spencer thank you!
good work! can't wait for the Firm
+Juan Ariza Thanks buddy! Me too it's gonna be awesome!
Hey bro can you elaborate to me why you out the camber kit in the middle this is my first time installing a camber kit on a car
what are the torque specs for the upper control arms hex nut bolts?
Extended ball joints and camber kits have been one of the best thing I did on my car.
There is also a second kit for Honda ball joints you can rent
Matt Rod does this fix the clunking of the camber kit i think my camber kit interferes with the top of the fender well will extended ball joints help at all
You didn’t use the ball joint remover/installer right to remove the ball joint, you had it upside down
I put front camber kit on my tsx now the front looks Higher
You put the camber kits on the wrong side! You put the left side on the right and the right on the left...
+Coda5610 I only did the one side this weekend but your right I did put it on the wrong side. I'll fix it this weekend. Thanks for spelling it out so clearly.
Do u have any problem with the camber kit hitting the chassis because of the way it's designed?
+King D I haven't driven it yet and I haven't heard of any issues like that
I had this problem and could not use the camber kit, do these extended balljoins allow the use of the camber kit?
Wade 1 that happened to me today..
Yea same issue I had. Those kits aren't ment for lower cars. I now use skunk2 or stock is best for clearance..
I've noticed you put the left camber arm on the wrong side oops! hope you sort that out.
Keep up good work and i've enjoyed watching every episode.👍
+Aaron Morgan yeah I noticed after but it's an easy fix. Thanks for watching !
I need to by a set of uppers for my 350Z. How did these truhearts work out for you ?
Do the camber arms hit the shock tower ? I'm trying to avoid cutting the shock tower and welding a bulk head in. I'd rather keep that stock...
I haven’t noticed them hitting the shock tower
Can anybody say how long the bushings/balljoint on the truhart uca lasted?
Good vid. That sucks you out it on backwards though. For my EG I had to remove my shocks because of the design of the upper control arm.
+Free Shavacado Thanks, yeah it was the end of the day and mixed it up. It not that hard on the EKs to take it out. Plus I only did the one side. thanks for watching !
i suggest a strut bar for front and rear cheap upgrade improves stability and handling
+zachary ayers its definitely something we'll do in the future
Question I put on one of that same control arm with the camber on my 98 accord and for some odd reason the ride height is messed up on the driver side. No matter how I lower my coilover the ride height is still mind blowing “HIGH” any help?? 😞
Maybe the bolts connected to the body are too tight and are not allowing the arm to move. Make sure to have the suspension at ride height when tightening your bolts
What size Allen key did you end up using for the camber plates?
The Allen key for the adjustable control arms is 8mm metric hex key
Looking good Travis ☺️ 👌
+InoXen thanks !
On my car the transmission fluid pours out when you pull the axle.
Then you have too much fluid in your trans, or your car is leaning that way enough so that trans fluid comes out when pulling the axle.
Usually a hammer is all that's needed for ball joints in a Civic.
Bro is this good brand of camber?for ek?
There not the best brand. But I have had no issues with them so far.
Can the Camber be adjusted on th Front of a 1989 Honda Accord? @ anyone please.?
Dont think so unless u buy a camber kit
great vid Travis. I want another Civic so bad. I hate u. can't wait for the race. what's up with Robbie?
