Default front EG LCAs into EK? Will it fit?

I have an offer for this setup:


remanufactured EG Trailing arms with all new Energy suspension bushings, already pressed in.

I have an 96 DX, so I don´t have the mounting holes for the sway bar. This is why I´m considering this swap. Will it work?

Thanks for the input.
As far as I got it from jdmuniverse, the DC2 LCAs should be a direct bolt on for the EK chassis Civic.
Can you confirm that?

yes the eg lca's are the same as the dc2 lca's. Both will change your castor (not sure if its forward or backward) but not majorly and you might not mind it...

Why are you changing them out?

I want a front sway bar. And my stock LCAs did not have the mounting holes. Its very difficult to get the maching EK LCAs here in Germany. Thats why I´m looking for alternatives.

Most of the Civics sold in Germany are the Civic Coupe EJ6 (DX) and the EJ9 Hatchback with the D14 motor
