I just got a set of Blox LCAs for my 99 GSR. I noticed that they dont have any holes in them for the rear sway bar. How are you guys hooking the LCAs to the sway bars?? I'm lost...thanks!

 

Home Depot = Nuts / Bolts = DIY.....

Some times you got to think outside of the box....

 

well what holes do i use??? There aren't exactly threadded holes nearby that i could just stick a bolt in...on the stock LCAs, there's a hole where a bolt threads.....nothing on here

 

does anyone have pics??

 

My understanding is that Blox sells endlinks that work.

this guy just gave you the answer. You have to get a bolt AND NUT from home depot or whatever hardware store, and just do it that way. Its not too hard of a thing to figure out...

BTW, I also bought the BLOX endlinks and they dont work. I've been using my OEM. If anyone has any pictures on this it would help out...

how is a bolt and nut going to work is there is no hole on the LCA for a swaybar end link?

 

i'm going to take a few pics of my LCAs later today or tomorrow and i'll have someone figure out where the bolt goes unless i can figure it out first....

I can't believe nobody else has used these before....

there is indeed a hole for the endlink, i have the blox lca's with the speedtech bar.

 

i'm trying to visualize how all of this goes together in my head because i dont have any of the parts in front of me....please excuse my ignorance

Do you have any pictures because that would make this about 100x easier for me

 

Here U go!!! ALL YOU HAVE TO DO NOW IS "STICK IT IN THE HOLE", AND IF YOU CANT DO THAT, YOU REALLY GOT ISSUES.... BTW... you might need some washers to have it sit properly...

 

thanks....like i said, i haven't seen them other than the day i got them and i couldnt see where the bolts would go. I'll figure it out...

 

I'm about to buy these LCA's should I get the endlinks or should I go with the blot/nut method? And Schister66, did you ever finish this?

 

i haven't done it yet, but after looking at it, the bolt method will work quite well....no need for the endlinks

 

Alright thanks, saved 40ish dollars! If nobody puts some pics up, i will as soon as I get everything installed.

 

Why wouldn't the bolts supplied with all the Sway bar hardware work? two bolts for the endlinks are included?

 

warning, i have those blox lca's and i just want you guys to know they SUCK ***!!!!!! the bushings cracked after 3 months and i dont wanna here anybody say "did you install them correctly" cause i never had a set of stock bushings crack. BLOC LCA'S SUCK!!!!!!!

 

perhaps it's the bushings that suck (and indeed polyurethane does suck for daily driving), and not the control arms themselves.

bushings are a part of the arm, i dont think anyone is going to change them out.
