Yea theres no way to tell without knowing the car it came off of or going under your car and just seeing if it fits.

looks like its from a teg and you have a 96-00 civic. The offset on the body mount isnt the same they are staggered.The links arent the same eks came with ball joint and threaded stud style.You will have to mod it to fit will take some work but is possible. ill give you a pic later of what you need to make it work
fyi : the sway bar itself is the correct length and will not be an issue

well the integra and civic ex/si if equipped came with the same style bar and same style control arms
i dont beleve in the US the civic ex and si 92-95 didnt come with rear bars if they did they would be the the same style as the teg which is still different than the ek 96+

the body mounts on the bar you have will not work on an ek unless you use washers to fill in the offset.If you use those endlinks you will need to rig something to attach them to the control arm as the washers you will use on the body mount will pull the alignment off on the link about 2" again in a few hrs ill post pics of what an ek rear bar looks like

It will fit. You just need a nut and bolt to hold each endlink to the LCA. You might have to slide the two brackets on the bar to line up to your cars holes but it will fit.

if you want it done properly and im going to assume that you have a 96-00 Civic as stated in your inappropriate thread about some pics.. anyway.. you need EK 96-00 Civic endlinks and the rest of the hardware to attach it to your subframe and LCAs. those endlinks that are on it are for an Integra. nut and bolt is straight ghetto and the wrong way to do it, plain and simple. do it right the first time.

you are correct in saying it is getto but he has very limited resources because of his location, and will have to rig it to work

Because using grade 8 nuts and bolts is ghetto. I have them holding my front upper strut bar on. What do you think the 99-00 Si endlink is? A magic thread with a magic nut holding it on. It's a nut threaded onto a bolt that is in a ball joint. Pretty much the same thing for the Integra, only the bolt is IN the LCA.

im just giving him a suggestion. if you feel the need to get all butt-hurt go for it. any way he wants to do it is fine with me, i honestly dont care. im just giving my input on the way it should be and the way it came from the factory.

so i tested it today....

i had to lift the car from the ground so the bolts will match the lca... is that ok?

here are some pics.... as you see it bar sits ok... (i think)

but the bracket that attaches the bar to the body wont align ok... i guess i need a adapter over there...???

also look at the ends where it attaches to the lca... its kinda offside, is that ok?
