Hey guys, hows it going?
So, I am loooking for a new rear crossmember for a 1990 civic DX.
Reason being - mine somehow snapped...in half.
I know I can get a used one from a salvage for about $50.
Not quite the style I have in mind.
Anyone know of anything aftermarket?
I know they are out there. I have been trying to catch up to a 5th gen i have seen around here.
He must think I am trying to race, and he takes off. =\

 

Did i find something that no one knows about??

 

There isnt too many late model civic owners here. I dont know look online to see if you can find one.

 

word of advice FOR THAT STRUCTURE SUPPORT DO NOT BUY USED! you need brand new!

its a very common rust area in older hondas!

but if you do buy a used one... sand blast it FULLY and undercoat the CRAP OUTTA IT!!!! weld up the seams and if its in great condition you can even weld the brace to the car BUT do not fully weld it! only space it. like 1 inch weld and then 2-3inches no welding.

i read alot about it before when i had my old crx.
its very common to weld some tach spots along the brace to stiffen up the car and also help the support from snaping in two pieces again.....
luckely with my crx i had it only had minimal rust.
