Rear disk conversion from a Acura CL

[ChandlerFihn]

Ive researched and it looks as though the cl and cd are the same chassis but will the rear disk conversion work? got a good deal on some trying to see if they will work. Also i found one thread on this but he did the whole subframe from the back so idk.

do the subframe too so you can use the rear swaybar

do you have experience doing this? is everything the same in the end? i read that the wheels will stick out farther.

lol mine came with discs from the factory,but all of it will get transferred to my h22 shell eventually. most people opt for the oem swaybar provisions while changing brakes and does not make the process any harder. im not sure but since the cb cd and cl all have the same suspension the subframe should be a bolt in. and its true ive read with certain hodgepodge of parts your wheels do stick out. im sure someone else can chime in that's done it or knows all about it

What about just the rear disk conversion. I need a new knuckle for the rear anyways and I was thinking I could convert to disc at the same time.

since i have to do it i was looking at exploded diagrams and it appears the knuckle is the same(between my 92 lx and 93 se). so Id just swap over my rotor hub and bearings calipers. the brake lines kinda dumb as i found out putting in SS lines. it goes from the car to SS to a short piece of hardline bolted to the knuckle, to SS to caliper.

Also add the RSB from an Acura Vigor. Its 2mm bigger at 16mm vs. 14mm for the CB and bolts right in. I simply reused my EX bushings and enlarged them 2mm so the mounts were the same

its the TL which is also the same as the cb cd cl. That will give you a wider rear end by 15mm per side so a full 30 mm wide rear end. I used the tl rear end with prelude hubs to get the width back too factory. I keep the TL hubs for a possible future widened rear end

Please use punctuation. It will help everyone understand what you are trying to say.

its not punctuation, reading comprehension perhaps? Better sentence construction? as long as a person knows about something and has two fingers to peck it out, thats all that really matters.
