Need help installing a 24mm ITR Front Sway Bar on my VX EG/EH...
I have installed my USDM ITR 22mm Rear Swaybar using the Beaks and Prothane kit and now it is time for the front bar to go on but I don't even know how it mounts.
So would you please tell me how to install the front 24mm ITR sway bar on my '92 VX EG/EH Hatchback?
It would be great if you scanned and posted pics of your Helm's Manuals or just pics of the installation. If not, would you please post a link or the necessary steps to get the bar installed correctly?
What I really need to know is where and how the bar attaches to the front subframe and LCA, how exactly it wraps around the header, and how are the endlinks are installed (More precisely, are the two sets of bushings supposed to clamp/go over/be on top of one another?).
Any info would be greatly appreciated and TIA.

LCA's need to be changed first.
The exhaust and shift linkage will need to be dropped.
Then it is pretty much a bolt-on affair. The D-brackets mount with 1 bolt and on the other side the subframe will have a stud sticking down on which you will put a nut.
Make sure you lube the bushings with some anti-sieze or other suitable lube.
No pictures... sorry.

Ausmith hit the nail right on the head.
You only need to swap out the rear portion of the front LCA, but you might as well just swap out the whole assembly.
Easy stuff.

Thanks a lot everyone.
I forgot to mention my suspension mods.
Installed I have ITR front and rear LCAs, shocks, springs, and rear USDM 22mm Swaybar. Other mods include Benen front and rear Lower Tie-bars, Skunk2 Front 2002 (revamped) upper A-arm camber kit, and Specialty Products rear camber kit.
What I really need to know is where and how exactly the bar fits;more specifically, how the endlinks are mounted, where the D-brackets mount both on the bar and subframe, and what parts the bar wraps around/goes over.
I already have the picture posted above and went to my local Acura dealer and found that their manuels don't show how to mount the bar either so those really weren't much help.
I guess a picture would be best.
TIA
