so i made custom endlinks for a gsr rear sway bar to be installed on a 96 civic ex... since i couldnt find Si endlinks...

my question is what is the length of the stock 99-00 si endlinks and would lengthening or shortening the ones i made affect the handling??

i used those bolts that look like eyebolts and have bolts through them... i cant remember the name at the moment but i can get pictures...

anyways, i was wondering if i should shorten them or what if i wanted a better handling sway bar

Rod ends, heim joints, sperical bearings? I assume you mean one of these.

You want to set your endlinks to be as perpindicular to the LCA as you can.
Like this "|", not "\" or "/".

 

thanks.. ill check it out

 

and you want your swaybar arms to be perpendicular to your endlinks when the car is sitting on level ground...

Any change in either the end-link angle, or swaybar arm angle will result in less twisting of the sway-bar during operation. This will effectivly reduce the stiffness of the sway-bar (not much though)...

 

appreciate the help guys
