Skunk2 sway bar would need aftermarket shocks, springs, and a re-inforcement plate for the subframe. I recommend the ASR subframe plate. There's a few guys on this board that have them.

like virus.EK said go with the ASR combo pack. it will come with a 22 mm Sway bar, sub fram reinforcement, and the rest of the hardware that you need. you should already the holes in your rear lower control arms for the endlinks to go into. all you need to do i pick up 2 washers and 2 bolts to hold the endlinks to the LCA. (im not sure if they are in the ASR package or not. but it will only be a dollor or 2 for them).

but if you dont want to go with a 22mm bar you can use a 19mm bar and you should be fine with out any frame damage. as long as you have a good spring rate.i have a 19 mm bar on my 99 hatch with H&R race and i have not had a problem yet.

hope this helps some

Why not just get a Suspension Techniques sway-bar? It doesn't require you getting new lower control arms. You just need the sway kit. Comes with all the hardware you need.

I personally got the SpeedTech rear kit, as it comes with the subframe brace and a 22mm sway bar with adjustable end links.

Why do you think you need new lca's? I don't have a sway bar kit yet and I've never heard anything about this..........

Can somebody clue me in or is he just misinformed?
