Is there a difference between 1988 / 89 Civic front upper control arms and 1990 / 91 arms? I've been told the 1990 / 91 arms have the ball joint seperate from the arm.

There's a difference between some of them but I'm not sure what/if there's a rhyme or reason to them. FWIW, I had an 89 that had the ball joint permanently affixed. For my 90 I went ahead and bough new UCA's from Honda... not sure if the ball joint was separate or not.

I have bought them for both and the aftermarket ones I got for a 90 Civic Si had a seperate ball joint . But the ones I bought for an 88 Civic standard were attached .
They are diminsionally the same part If I'm not mistaken ?
Does anyone else have a better idea ?

Correct dimensionally identical...
When I had my 89, I went to the junkyard and looked until I found a set with separate ball joint and then replaced the ball joint. I didn't think to look at what year the car was

I have seen them both ways for the same year. I have a set of stock ones with INGALS adjustable ball joints if you are interested. New!
How much negative camber could I get with these control arms / ball joints? What do you need to get for them? Thanks.
