Aftermarket Lower Control Arms and Sway Bar
For the ones that don't know, the 5 gen civic rear lower control arms will need to be replace in order to install a sway bar.
I have a aftermarket sway bar that has been laying around for the pass 4-5 years that I finally want to install. I am interested in the blox control arm on ebay and want to ask if anyone here has one installed with a sway bar cause I notice there are 3 different colors in that LCA and they seem to have different distance for the sway bar mounting hole. I just want to make sure they will match up so I won't be wasting my time and money. It would be great if anyone that has a rear sway bar on their 5 gen to post up some pics. Thanks

Re: Aftermarket Lower Control Arms and Sway Bar
I am not sure about the ebay lower control arms, they look kind of sketchy to me. I wanted them at first, but ended up getting some good 'ol integra ones. And I have absolutely no problems with them. Everything bolts right in.
With ebay ones, I don't think they'll include endlinks, so personally I wouldn't risk it.

Re: Aftermarket Lower Control Arms and Sway Bar
The end links should come with the sway bar not the LCA. Anyway, can you tell me which sway bar do you have and possible to post a pic up?

Well in that case it might be fine, but still OEM is better then a cheap brand imo.
I am running a stock integra 14mm rear bar. Don't the pics now, but I can take some tomorrow.

Re: Aftermarket Lower Control Arms and Sway Bar
Do you have aftermarket exhaust? I notice there are clearance problems with sway bar if it has an aftermarket exhaust. It would be great if you can get some pics at where the exhaust and the sway bar meets area.
I got the LCA yesterday and just installed it in this morning, took me around 15 mins. The reason I choose the aftermarket one over OEM cause IMO it's more regit at the stressing points.

Re: Aftermarket Lower Control Arms and Sway Bar
Does anyone has a link for getting the sway bar bracket/adapter for the rear sway bar?
