does anyone know what size the nuts are that connect the sway bar to the subframe.. my civic did not come with any of those welds that the cars with sway bars already have so i have to get little nuts to hold it in place.

also, will a dual bend skunk2 ss fit in the eg? thanks

bring the reinforcement kit with you to like home depot and find a metric good grade bolt that fits in the hole and youll need a washer and nut as well. i forgot what size i bought it was either a 1¼ or 1½ bolt.

the thing is i bought the bolt at the honda dealer... im pretty sure its a 8mm but the thing is when i try to put the 8mm nut from home depot in it just goes in a little bit then jams. i guess honda had their own little 8.5mm size?

im not putting in a reinforcement kit because its only a gsr sway and i have stiff shocks and springs to back it up so the load will be light.

home depot = max grade of 5, and no metric


go to a place like Ace Hardware, they carry grade 8 metric bolts

sounds like the thread pitch is different. just take the bolt to a place that sells automotive parts and has metric hardware.

ah thanks for clearing. i just said home depot because it seems nationwide. i should've just said a hardware store.

btw: back on subject, you dont need a longer bolt since you're just putting on a gsr. i had to get a longer one for the bottom because the reinforcement had an extension.

They're 8x1.25, if you're talking about the two holes per side the attach the swaybar bracket to the subframe.
