rsx rear sway bar?
hey everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the rsx 19mm rear sway bar + bushings would look like? I am going to buy this from someone soon but I do not know what it looks like.. just to make sure I get the right part.. thanks .. any input would be helpful!

It looks like the one on your car but bigger.

Rep Power: 368 Make sure you have a lot of WD-40 or Liquid Wrench handy. Also, the 14mm wrench and 5mm allen wrench are essential. Finally, I recommend getting Grey's endlinks cause the Honda ones are a bizznotch to take off. I stripped 2 pairs in my car's lifetime trying to take them off, even after using tons of Liquid Wrench. I eventually had to come up with some crazy McGyver tricks to get the freakin things off. Story below about when I had installed the wrong type of sway bar and it broke my endlinks:

7THGEN ENDLINKS ARE GARBAGE!!! I spun mine with an impact gun and held a hacksaw to them to get them cut off...lol.
Do yourself a favor and get new one's before you attempt this....worst case you have to return them but if you have to destroy the original one's you'll be glad you got new one'

Rep Power: 368 ^^agreed^^ Just get Grey's cause even if you get new Honda endlinks you're gonna have the same problem should you ever need to remove your sway bar for any reason. Grey's endlinks are fastened with a 14mm bolt and nut if I recall correctly so they're easy to remove and reinstall. Oh and they're adjustable.
