Ok so i know that I should use the 83-87 upper control arms, but whats the problems with the 3rd gen prelude arms? Its seems like they would work, I compared em in the jy and they are just slightly different? Has anyone actually tried them, or has a definite reason why they will not work?
88-91 Arms Work, still need what you'd need for 83-87 But the 88-91 Don't offer as much adjustment as 83-87 ArmsQuote:

i love my 2nd gen lude arms. i would post pics but my cam died...and i only took pics with my phone...and they look crapy.
on one side i was able to pull positive camber...but it looks like the ball joint is about to hit the top of my fender.
So anyone know the differnce in adjustability between the two?
search........2 mins got me this

We just talked about these upper arms the other day and somebody said 3rd gen lude dint werk... the looked pretty close to me, and yep there are plenty of 3rd gen ludes in the JY... B20's do not hold up in them:wtf:
I can understand how they may not allow as much adjustment though, I wonder if you can fab them a little.
^Dont know. Im going to another pullapart tomorrow so maybe i will return with some decent 2nd gen ones,.
hey on the early lude arms, is it the same ball joint for all of them? i have a set around here somewhere.but they need ball joints. has anyone ever checked on these lude forums to see if they made a high performance ball joint for those arms?
^Not sure, but i do know they made camber kits for the early ludes.
well these make the camber adjustable on the accord, plus the ball joint unbolts.Quote:
