Em2 civic toe problems

So I have a 02 civic em2 I’m currently running truharts for suspension with camber plates. At first I had awesome fitment with a straight wheel alignment. Just recently I hit a crazy pot hole and it knocked my alignment out, I’ve taken it to two spots only one can give me a reason why they can’t align them. He said my drivers side outer tire rods need more threads and recommended me to look into rsx parts. My question is how do I fixed my toe on these cars if it’s maxed out?

Re: Em2 civic toe problems

When you hit the pot hole did it by chance bend the strut? That's about the only thing I can think of that would then make the tie rods not long enough.

Re: Em2 civic toe problems

it's well known issue when slammed. RSX tie-rods will bolt from the bottom, while civic are on the top. thus it's not as far compared with civic tie-rod ends.
there are a few threads around if you search for them.

Re: Em2 civic toe problems

Recently had my 04 EM2 aligned and they said the same thing. They mentioned if my steering was ever removed which I said no. I have a set of KSport Kontrol Pro coil overs on mine.
anybody found a solution to this?
