Hey guys need your help on looking for an oem 01' lx swaybar.

thanks osk!
mmm 38 bucks sounds good!
so I need the bushings also right?
just making sure.

EDIT: Why is it that they put a much beefier sway bar(25.4mm?) into 01' LX and and in
the 03' EX all I got are twigs (15mm?) sway bars?

why would you spend $38 + shipping on a stock sway bar when you can have a used rsx sway bar for $50 shipped (clubrsx.com)

people throw away the stock sway bars, they aren't worth anything. if your car didn't come with a sway bar already, you need to buy the adapter kit from progress.

btw, you should probably get paypal, that's what 90% of people who sell stuff on forums use. that or look for someone that will accept a check/money order.

because my fsb is like 15mm and the rsb is I think 12mm not so sure. but i'm hopefully
getting the fsb from a 01' LX being that it's 25.4mm and a RSX rsb 19/22mm. I did a
little research and for the street this is suppose to be a great setup but for the track
it wouldn't because of understeer. but if you have coilovers you can tune to reduce
understeer. correct if I'm wrong not a 100% sure

^correct and props for doing the research. WhiteOnRice is also right about the alignment. From my personal experience going from a 24mm front bar to a 15mm front bar is a lot better.

Incorrect, u cannot find an 01 LX's rear sway bar as no 01 LX's came with them stock.

If u want to run a rear sway bar on an 01 LX, u will need to buy a progress rear sway adapter kit.

there is no need for any thing bigger then 22mm........it is just overkill........make sure to get some beefy end links because ours are really wimpy........and make sure to get a sub frame brace....that sway bar needs something to hold on too..........
