Question 88 crx hf b18 swap. wheel problems...

CRX HF b18 swap problem
I just swapped a b18a1 into my 88 crx hf. I used...

91 integra cable trans
b series clutch and flywheel
92 integra intermediate shaft
92 integra axles
ebay bseries ef mounts
ebay avid shift linkage
obd1 ecu
obd0-obd1 conversion harness
4wire o2 sensor
89 crx si (driver side) spindle
89 crx dx (pas side) spindle

anyway, the car starts up fine, but the front wheels sit out, as if my tie rods are too short. (kinda like pidgin feet \\ // )

What could the problem be? they sit out a lot, so the car can not be driven...

yes, with the 90-91 bumper support you can interchange all 88-91 crx bumpers. but keep in mind the bumper will not match the rest of the molding on the car.

welcome to the forum. I beleive your axles are a bit long causing the wheels being farther out then stock and ask you stated the tie rods are a bit short to give a harder toe out. might check to see if you can get longer tie rods to be able to center your wheels.
