Default Rear sway bar ? Yes i searched....

I picked up a Progress rear 22mm bar from a friend about a year ago. He told me it was for an EK 99 si to be exact.....Ive been sitting on it since then. The other day I went to installl it on my delsol which is EG like....I dosent seem to fit.

Comparing my hardware and bar to pics that I found, it looks different than what I have.....Are these bars that much different?

I thought that id fit okay, but i guess not?

If you have comparison pics EK/EG that be a huge help

TIA!

check progress website or call them and ask if the bars are interchangable between chassis?

Where do the ends of the Progress bar attach? My Suspension Tech bar bolts to the subframe and then to the shock fork bolts, and this design fits both EK and EG suspension (I have used the same bar on both). If the Progress bar attaches to the LCA's, I think that could be a problem.

The bar attaches to the lower shock bolts. Like the ST bar you describe

It seems like it should work, what specifically do you think will not fit properly? Have you already tried to install it? I know with the ST bar, on the EG vs. EK, there is an extra spacer involved and two longer bolts, but the install is identical otherwise. It also mentions possibly having to knock out a welded on bolt off the subframe (I am not sure which models this may apply to specifically).

Do you have any pics of the actual bar and components you have, maybe that could help clear things up.
