Hi guys need a little help cant quite find the answer to this.

So I purchased a rear sway bar of a 2000 SI civic to install on my 98 Civic HX, when I purchased the bar it came with the blox adjustable endlinks and also some bushings(pictured) for the endlinks themselves. However looking at the official honda diagram I do not see them listed at all. So I am not sure that they are even used by the stock system.

I plan on using the Hard race Endlinks (which are similar to stock) as they are only a few bucks more then the junk endlinks sold at oriellys and cheaper then OEM. would I need the endlink bushings in this situation?

Thankyou

 

Yep, you will need those bushings. It's odd that they aren't showing in the picture from the fiche.

There are Al ones available also, they come with the PWJDM/SPMS ones or also (I believe) with the ASR ones.

 

The sway bar you have is off a 3rd gen Integra or Del Sol. With those endlinks, ASR sway bar inserts should be used rather than rubber bushings. This setup should work but the only question left will be if there will be if the endlink end is long enough to get it bolted to the sway bar. Just based off the pics, it looks like you'd be cutting it close on how much thread will be exposed to tighten the nut.

Also, you could use the Blox adjustable endlinks that were included but the ASR inserts are still needed.

Ahh snap. Good eye. I forgot the SI had a different end on it.

Don't use the Blox end links. ASR or PWJDM/SPMS.

 

Thanks for the replys I was told it was an Si bar...I guess he was wrong...The adjustable endlinks I received were kinda rusty and just seem kinda lame really.

@spadam you wouldnt recomend the hardrace endlink?

@OmaR apparently the guy was running the blox adjustables without the inserts you have mentioned, it was all bolted together when I purchased them and it seemed to be a correct fitment

...so just curious at this point this bar is thicker then the SI sway?

 

You can't use the Hardrace Si style links if you're not running an Si bar. They won't fit. I said don't run Blox because they are garbage.

 

Order these:

These will give you ability to use the OEM, or hardrace endlinks.

 

thanks for the link I will have to shop arround as that particular website wants to charge $40 shipping

 

King motorsports is out of stock. Im gonna go with OmaR suggestion, Thanks for all the replies

 

They're all the same, find the best deal for you. I personally used the Function 7 pieces.
The king link was the first that popped up so I went with it.

 

Thanks to all for helping me out got the parts in the mail from ASRparts.com link and they fit perfectly, I will attempt to install the bar tomorrow.
