I got this swaybar for free. Been told its for 99-00 usd SI/ cdn SIR Em1.

I tried to fit it in a 97 civic hatch with aftermarket LCA.

But it wont fit. I thought the 99-00 rear sway are interchangeable to the hatch. Its a bit too long from the endlink and mounting point.

I've been told its a 19mm rear sway. =(

pics below:

 

Definetly doesn't look like a Honda bar. Have you mic'd it? is it 19mm?

Can you take a picture of the end of the bar, where the endlink would go?


Also, Si/SIR rear sway bar is 13mm, not 19mm.

 

The rear sway is aftermarket i believe.

 

Suspension techniques?

I'm not sure exactly what it's off of, but it's a front swaybar, not a rear.

Notice the L bracket coming off the LCA for mounting.

 

edit....I just re-read OP's post and he said it has aftermarket LCA's

Here's a link to read; it's relative to OP's problem

In addition to what you posted I went ahead and did a bit more Googling.

OP I don't know about you but i'm looking at getting the 22mm Progress sway bar for my 99 Civic in a few months

Looks like you have a Suspension techniques rear bar. I was thinking that at first, and those endlinks pretty much confirm it.

 

If its a 22mm rear bar your after save some coin and grab an OEM usdm ITR bar (22mm) and save ~$60.

Im not sure if id trust a big bar without some reinforcement or if id trust the sheet metal parts w. the Progress kit.

 

Thanks guys. I'll look into the details now
