yeah but im trying to get the full correct list of parts that have to be changed for the rotor over hub conversion because i want to do this in the next week or two and that will mean buying acura cl rotors not the honda rotors it takes now.

I approve, this will make future work much easier. Just make sure that you keep records of the conversion so the next owner (if you ever sell) will know it takes different rotors.

The rotors for a 98-02 accord and the 98-99 CL are the same, if you wanted to get rotors from a Honda dealership.

So correct me if im wrong but all i really need is the hub and bearing from the 98-99 CL and the rotors from the 98-99 CL or 98-02 Accord. the CL bearing will bolt right in place of the old(current) bearing?

The 98/99 CL and the 94-97 Accord use the same bearing.

The 98/99 CL and the 98-02 use the same rotor.

I would get a new bearing, new rotor, and the CL hub.

Here is a video on how to change out a bearing to see how you would do this job.


We can give you more detailed information, depending on the source of the hub (new or used?). Or if you buy the entire knuckle (what I did).

This looks like your front brakes rotors are warped. I too had the same issue on my 06 evo9, i Replaced the rotors and pads right after the issue was solved. If you are using the car oftentimes better replace the rotor now, braking plays a very big part on safety and with warped rotors your braking efficiency is lessend. And when the car shakes it can also cause premature wear on some components on the car.

Goodluck

I've been searching everywhere online from parts stores to yards and cant find a place to buy front hubs and bearings, only rear hub assemblies. any info on good places to get the front hubs for an 98-99 Acura cl?

tasauto.com has the rotor over the hub conversion.

That car-part.com site has the front knuckle listed as the spindle. You can find out if the spindle comes with the hub/bearing.
