    88-91 are different the 90-91, the rear control arms I believe are not interchangeable.

    88 is different.
    the 89-91 are the same.

    The 88 Civic and CRX use an eye mount rear shock.
    The 89-91 Civic and CRX use a fork mount rear shock.
    These pieces are interchangable but you will have to change the shock also.
