R32 Hicas Removal

[Illest]

Hey guys, im halfway through swapping subframe to NON-HICAS.

I have a quick question in regard to the LCA's.

The HICAS rack end toe arms that im replacing with 180sx rear toe arms which mount up to the knuckles..

Do I need new non hicas knuckles or can I press out the ball joint and use the original knuckle but add a spherical bearing to both sides of the knuckle?

I will post pictures when I can, but everything is at the suspension shop getting new whiteline bushes pressed into the subframe and I've asked them to press out the ball joints on the LCA's/Knuckles.

Cheers,

Michael.

issue is the knuckle design, im not 100% sure on this, if there is a conversion part or not
