Default Rear Teg Sway bar problem

I've looked through the FAQ but have found articles for EK and my searchs all turn up that the OEM Integra bar should be a direct install on my 93 2dr EJ1 (I replaced the LCA's in back with integra ones in order to get the mount points). However my problem is that the bar seems too long and does not line up with the mount holes. Do I have to put weight on the tires in order to spread them out or is there some other trick for making this work. The Bar is off an integra from 94-97

The bar should physically fit on with it in the air, but dont tighten till you're on the ground.

Are you saying the end links are too far beyond their mount on the arms? Cause when you say mount point I assume you mean on the chasis...but its no way that can be too long. Unless you have it on backwards or something crazy.

Yes, they are about 1/2" or so beyond the holes in the LCA's with the car up on jack stands. Will they push outwards more with the weight of the car on its wheels?

Also, Im not sure if its necessary, but will the integra Rear LCA change the camber of the tire because it looks like the tire of the left side is angled like this \ a little.

I wound up using a bar from a 95 civic sedan. On a side note, my 93 EJ1 coupe did not have the holes tapped for use with the bar. The holes were there, but I wound up putting a washer and nut on the back side of it.
