I have the rear sway bar off of a 92 integra and I'm getting the lca's off of a 91 crx si. I have two questions.
1. Are the brackets that connect the sway bar to the chassis the same between the integra and Si?
2. Does anyone have a good explanation of how to thread the holes that the brackets connect too? I know it has to be done but just need to know how.

I am told you can use ITR bars but they screw with your camber. I would get a si bar or get an actual crx si upgrade kit that comes with new bushings. $500cdn for front and back 22mm bars. vs 18mm stock

from searching i know the bar is the same as the Si, maybe like 1mm bigger. I was wondering if the brackets that connect the sway bar to the chassis are the same. I already have the integra bar so this is the route im going to take.
With the DX the holes are there but there is no threaded "nut". I just opened up the holes enough to be able to weld a plate with the two nuts welded to the back and then welded the plate to the frame. Be sure the bolts from the bracket line up by bolting the bracket to the plate before welding the nuts to the back of the plate.

From reading the article on the crx resource, it seems they are using the integra brackets and bolting them up to the holes where the tow hooks are currently. I,m going to try this i think cause i already have the integra brackets.

Ok i decided to stop being lazy and I did a little physical research. To my surprise i went out and looked at the mounting holes for the brackets on my car and they were threaded already. I suppose some dx's came with the holes threaded.
Next i compared the integra brackets i have with the Si brackets from my friends CRX. The brackets are different. The integra brackets look like they would work if you use one hole from where the tow hooks connect and one hole from the original swaybar mount holes.
I decided just to order the Si brackets from the local honda dealer because of the fact that my holes were already threaded. They were about 17 bucks each at the honda dealer. Also by going this route i'll be able to retain my tow hooks.
