Default Which LCA hole?

I just checked and it seems my LCAs has two holes on each side. One inner and the other outer. They are about 1 inch apart. Question is which hole should I use to mount my swaybar end link to? The inner hole or the outer hole nearer to the wheel?

The endlink falls between the 2 holes when it is orientated vertically.

IIRC one has a nut welded on the inside and the other does not.. you need to use the one with the nut welded on the inside.. I'll double check when I get home tonight to tell you which for sure if this doesn't help..

correct. i just went to the garage and took a look underneath my car to confirm that, haha.

use the hole closest to the wheel (the one with the nut welded on the inside of the lca): if going from the outside --> in, it's the hole right after the one where the bottom of the damper connects to the lca.

There is no welded nut on one end. Forgot to mention that my LCA was replaced before by the previous owner.

You should probably post a picture then.

it's on the inside of the LCA.. looking up from underneath you should see one on at least one side (I suppose one may have seized at some point and was cut off, but even then you'd see where it was)..

Okay, my car was on a DC2R sway previously. To mount it to the LCa, two holes had to be drilled. I'll be using the outerholes. Thanks for the help guys.
