Default rear sway bar install, need help

ive got a 93 del sol si and am trying to finish off my suspension with a rear sway bar from eibach. but we all know that there is no factory sway on the del sol in the rear. so i was hoping someone could tell me which set of rca would work to bolt that bad boy on. ill be checking back all day till i get an answer. i need this bar on the car, the rear slides out on me.


here are some pics of the car!

You need aftermarket RLCA's for a 92-95 Civic / 94-01 Integra.

You can source lca's from any integra 94-01 they are a dir bolt on (they do have a bit of bend in them from the factory) So don't be shocked if you find ones in a salvage yard that look a little bent . I believe all the after market lca's have a place to mount sway bars. FYI if you are going to go anything over stock size sway bar you are really going to want to reinforce the sub frame with a brace. search for sub frame damage.

Del sol VTEC models had a rear swaybar
I'd try to source some OEM LCAs first

You are aware that a sway bar won't stop your rear from sliding at all right? It only stops body roll and improves turn in, which will increase oversteer.

Your car might handle better if you use the targa top
