| Ok i have a 92 Honda accord with a f22a1 in it and i also have a 93 prelude in running condition but it has a salvage title and is covered in bondo from some one beating the shit out of it... i was thinking about swapping the hole front and rear breaks and hub assembly, sway bars and possibly abs as well. i was wondering if any one has done this before or attempted it any feed back would be nice. and has any one heard of a 92 accord with a 93 prelude front end conversion. |

| I've heard of knuckle conversions; but I'd double check the back(I know some Preludes had different rear suspensions, especially SH trim). As for swapping ABS, I wouldn't bother unless the Accord already has it. |

| Yeah as for that no the swap will not work the hubs will not fit in the lower controll arm and if you use the preludes they will fit with a little love but then the accord sway bar wont mount up right and yes i tryed all of it do not try doing this unles you want to waste a hole bunch of time |

| OK so a year later i am going to do this again and i am pretty sure that i can make this work. The only problem i had before was that once i got the prelude lower control arm on, hub and knuckle on and the prelude sway bar mounted. (which is bigger around and i could not use the prelude lower control arm without it) I realized that the sway bar was hitting the shock ever so slightly, for those of you who know the prelude it has essentially a tie rod end that attaches to the sway bar, and only two bushings instead of four that attach to the control arm so it can sit at a angle instead of straight up and down. So i am going to get new rotors and ceramic pads (i work at a parts store so not bad for me) and put it back on when i get a couple days off, and just heat up the sway bar and bend it just a little so it wont touch. And i think this will be a feasible swap. At the moment i am only going to do the front. And as i am doing with this i will take pics and then do a wright up on how to do the swap, and once i look and compare the rear end i will do the same for that. |
