Just Installed my RSX Sway Bar
Thanks to those who posted the DIY's for it. I'm not such a handy man like my friend 
(user DMX) so it took like 2 hours for me! I think the hardest part of it was taking off the endlinks. WD-40 should be labeled as a reqiurement for the DIY. I only have 12k miles on my car, and the links wouldn't even budge without some lubrication. If you plan on doing it soon, use WD-40!! The stock sway bar on my EX feels and looks like crap compared to the rsx one. And I can really feel a difference with the new bar. It feels like a whole new suspension and I feel like I'm flying on the road. Ok, maybe i'm exaggerating a little, but the RSX sway bar is one hell of a modification to your suspension.

Rep Power: 0 Save up and buy the Progress rear sway bar. I tried the RSX Type S bar and yeah, it was okay. But now that I have the Progress set-up, I can honestly say it's more noticable. Not to mention you can rest assured that your chassis is being braced and you end up with stiffer polyurethane bushings.

Hello, did you just changed the rearsway bar or also the front? Will it matter if I just want to change the rear ones? Thanks.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][hr]
