Default Do I need LCA's?

Do I need aftermarket LCA's to install a rear sway bar in a 96 ex? I won't have the car in front of me for awhile, so I can't look and see if there's anywhere to mount the endlinks.
Also, will they fix the camber issues I have with 17" rims and 2" drop?

And, please, don't just tell me I should do it for the "bling factor." Yes, they look nice, but I don't wanna spend that kinda money just so people behind me in traffic will think my car is pretty

I won't have the car in front of me for awhile, so I can't look and see if there's anywhere to mount the endlinks. You're fine, but some sway bars require you to drill a hole or two in your subframe piece.

[b]Some claim to, and even fewer actually do. Most are lighter, stronger, and look nicer. Get a full alignment and a rear camber kit to fix that camber/caster/toe issue.

haha, no prob. I got Megan Racing LCA's and I'm very happy with my purchase, even though they are mostly for aesthetics. They look even better with my ASR Subframe bar installed in between, it's anodized red also.

I'm going to purchase this soon, and I had the same question. So teggy LCA's on my EG arn't essential for the swaybar?
