Default How do i mount this?

So the guy i got this from said to use my exsisting accessories from my stock sway bar to mount this.. but i have a 99 dx hatchback, so mine didn't come with a stock rear sway bar..

This is a cusco rear sway i bought.. so how do i mount this bad boy?

You might want to look in to the ASR or A Spec racing sub frame reinforcement.

You will need

The D brackets to attach to the body
The bushings that go in the D brackets
and some sort of endlinks (OEM or other)

and with a big sway bar like that you really should get some sort of Sub-Frame reinforcement that way you don't tear your **** out...

BTW nice sway bar

Ok thanks, would i be better off to just buy the brackets and endlinks from honda? or look around at a junk yard?

Also anyone know any sites with good prices on the sub frame reinforcement kits?

You also want to make sure that you get the properly sized D brackets and bushings. If I am not mistaken I believe you have the 24mm Cusco Rear sway for the EK9. but you may want to do some measuring and check on that.

Endlinks are really up to you. OEM always works, but there are plenty of other options.

Go to the web site and ask if they can help you out with finding brackets and bushings for that sway bar. You just gotta figure out how big it is befor you start asking for things.

Charleston is a really nice guy, let me know if you need anything...
