I need help installing my Suspension Techniques rear sway bar I just bought off another member. I have a '98 DX w Function7 LCA's. I have DC2 rear suspension, not the fork suspension like stock Civics, but I dont think thats an issue(?). When I line up the bar, I know where the D-brackets go, but where do the ends of the bar get attached to? I tried searching, but only found info on the fronts, regarding you need a part from the Si. Am I missing something, or do I need something else? Any help is appreciated

 

I'm guessing you need endlinks? This is where the ends of the sway bar get bolted to the rear LCA's.

 

#31/32 are the endlinks

 

both of the above are likely wrong. the ST bars use bolts with poly pushings and actually attach at the shock bolt. ST builds them this way as a kit so people with no sway bar mounts don't have to buy new LCA's

see the bolts and bushings pictured? you basically use a 90deg piece of plate metal off the back of a shock lower bolt, then use the bolt and poly bushings to attach. if you didn't get all these parts i would contact ST suspension and buy the correct mounting kit. this is NOT a bar you want to buy bare by itself. they come as a package. i actually have a 19mm ST bar on the back of my integra. if you need help let me know and i can take a pic.

 

photos for the thread

 

for the pics. good to know the st setup is diff.

 

Were the bolts also included with the sway bar? I mean the longer shock bolts that hold the "L" bracket that goes through the LCA?

 

stock bolts are used. you won't need anything longer, that plate metal is 3/16ths tops, might be 1/8th.

 

yeah, BIG to idrivesideways for the info & those pics! BIG HELP! i got those long bolts/bushings w the bar, just not the L-shaped brackets. prob gonna make custom ones
