    86 lude arms?

    i have a 1986 lude with the 2 liter and you guys all said the upper control arms will fit on my car? well i looked at the little ca's and they are different than the accords. the accords upper ca has the ball joint in it and the lude doesnt! What the hell?

    that has nothing to do with my question... lowering ur car doesnt change the ball joint location on the ca! and the car is lowered... so b4 u get smart... read then speak!

    Well that's the whole point of changing to the prelude arms is that you have adjustable arms and the ball joints can be purchased separately.
