Default 23mm rear swaybar questions??

i have a 99 civic si. decided to go from the stock 13mm rear swaybar to the bigger 23mm jdm rear swaybar. my questions is what d-brackets ans endlinks will work with this setup. i tried to get the jdm honda bushings from r&d but they said they were no longer available... Any help would be appreciated

I think you can get this kit and it will bolt right on:

I would go with bastard on this. Try to squeeze that bar onto the beaks kit. Regardless your gonna need something to reinforce your subframe so it doesn't tear.

I have the 22mm sway bar with beaks kit on my 99 Si. It made a VERY noticealbe difference.

i think you can still use your factory SI endlinks, because doesn't the beaks kit still use the factory SI endlinks?

yeah it looked like it still used the stock ones with a little sleeve that went over the endlink bolt to make it fit the swaybar better.

Is there a kit out there that does not require the drilling of the subframe?

Your talking about a difference of 1mm. You can use the same bushings. My local autozone carries Energy Suspension 7/8" poly swaybar bushings w/D brackets. Thats what I used, and it fit perfect.

Oh, in that case you can use the same endlinks, but will need different bushings (22mm, 23mm or 7/8") should all work. Not sure about the D-Brackets. BTW I have a set of 22mm rubber bushings still in the packaging if you want to pay shipping they are yours.
