    Suspension Questions

    Im redoing the whole suspension on my 86 aerodeck. Ball joints, bushings, bearings. Everything. Im using ground control sleeves and konis. I need to find extended tophats and i need to know if ef honda forks will fit. MPC makes billet drop forks i want to use. Link below:

    Anyone make billet extended tophats for our accords? I want to keep my ride height while keeping decent shock travel.
    Do ef control arms fit? Any interchangeable parts? Traction bars, etc...

    Those drop forks are interesting! If you use those, would you still need extended top hats?

    That's a good find there snowman. I believe the CA forks are just as long as those ef short forks. All the ef civic guys use the 3gee forks because they are shorter by an inch or two. I don't know for sure but I believe. Cheadah auto makes cnc extended top hats and rear upper control arms. For the front 3rd Gen prelude upper conto arms work and they are adjustable. Cheadah is soon to be making a traction bar in the near future.
    Here is his website. All product are test proven and top quality. I've seen several in person and they are beautiful
