I got the rear LCAs, let me see if I got a pic of them for you....

 

i've got a set pm me with offer if you are interested

 

Your stock rear LCA's should already have endlink mounting holes, since all 6th gen Civic rear LCAs are the same. If you still need some, I have a set off my 97 EX that has the holes. I'm in San Jose.

Here's an old pic:

 

I have a set of front lower control arms off of a 2000 SI. Check my sig for a link to my sale page!

so your saying that my lca off my 96 dx hatch are the same as 99-00 si lcas?

 

I believe that only EX's have the holes....

 

yeah only the ex came with holes and i also have a set or lca off a 00 si.

 

All 96-00 Civics came with holes in the rear lower control arms for a sway bar. Don't let anyone else try to sell you some **** you don't need.

Wrong. Thats why everybody wants to upgrade to si or ex lca's because they are the only ones with the holes.

 

I wish only people who actually knew what the hell they were talking about would answer. I bought my 98 Civic DX hatch brand spanking ******* new from the dealer and in 02 I installed a 00 SI rear sway bar in my "Factory Original" rear lower control arms.

 

i have new integra front LCA from acura if you need that. still in it triangle box(sorta)

 

People, all 6th gen rear LCA's are the same. Look them up on Majestic's site(http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com), they're the same part number - 22754(Majestic's pn). I don't know if some people got a bad batch of LCAs or what, but every 6th gen model and year combination I have tried has come up with the same part number for the rear LCA(it's the same for right and left, one is just turned 180 degrees). I myself have never come across a 6th gen civic that DID NOT have holes for swaybar endlinks on the rear LCAs. Hell, I used to go an take a look whenever I came across 6th gen Civics in parking lots, etc to verify that this is true, and not once did I find evidence that proved otherwise. Now, if you still think you need EX rear LCAs, you're more than welcome to by mine.

 

my 98 HX LCA's came with sway bar mounting holes

God, sometimes it hurts me to always know what I am talking about, before I open my mouth. Maybe others should try it out. It works!!

PS. Thanks inspyral for the proof.

 

so even if i have a dx they still will work for a type r rear sway bar? what about a si front sway?

You still need Si endlinks and the appropriate D-brackets and mounts for the rear, and everything that's not shaded in this pic for the front:

yeah just to offer some assurance, i have a 98 dx and i have the holes already, just found this out since i thought SI were diff but their all the same ish.

 

which ones are the endlinks&gt;?

 

 

thanks...but i only need these for the rear correct?

You need them for the front as well if you want to run an Si front bar. The part number should be the same for front/rear, so you need 4 total. Everything you need for the front is listed here:

For the rear, if you want to run an ITR bar, I would suggest getting: the bar itself, the 2 Si endlinks(+ 2 more for the front if you're going with the Si front setup), and either a Beak's or BSQ mounting/reinforcement kit(they're available with poly bushings and D brackets the last time I checked).

 

thanks for the help!!!
