Sway bar question
Ok I got a rear sway bar today for my civic with all the end links I believe I have a integra rear sway bar, went to install it today an the angle ofthe mount to the lca was extreme. I kno I need civic mounts for it to work I looked at the si mounts an there different from my sway bar just curious how to make it work, if it matters I pulled it from a 94 civic sedan with a disk brake swap an the lca's had kind of a"s" bend to them so I'm guessing integra but don't kno what year they came from I hope I didn't waste my money an get the odd ball one lol

Re: Sway bar question
Take pics of the lower control arms, particularly the endlink mount areas.
Sure, include pics of the swaybar while you're there, but which swaybar you have doesn't really matter much. What matters more is which lower control arms you have, because that will determine which endlinks you need.
Generally, if you have integra or EG LCAs, you need integra or EG endlinks. If you have 96-00 Civic LCAs, you need 99-00 Si endlinks. If you have ITR LCAs, then you need ITR endlinks. Generally.
If you use the wrong endlinks for your LCAs, the geometry will be really weird.

Re: Sway bar question
Well, I don't know if Blox makes different LCAs for EGs and EKs, I have them, and they're just like the 96-00 lcas, so I use 99-00 Si endlinks. Only difference with the blox and stock are the flashy looks and crappy quality.

Re: Sway bar question
Those are integra/EG style endlinks.
Your Blox LCAs (I *think*) have endlink holes in the 99-00 Si location. Therefore, you'll need 99-00 style endlinks.
Blox makes a decent set of nonadjustable 99-00 endlinks that jhpusa sells for $35.
