Rear sway bar help!

[Renz0]

Hey, I'm completing the suspension but I can't figure out how the rer sway bar is supposed to be mounted.

If anyonr can please post a picture even with the arms on the ends where they go. Thanks

Are you using an OEM rear sway bar on a car that originally didn't have one, or is this an aftermarket bar?

[Renz0]

OEM my friend.

Not the best photo, but I think this helps you out.

If you have the equivalent of the US LX (without rear sway bar), you will need the rear cross member from the equivalent of the EX or SE which has brackets for the sway bar. The ends attach to the trailing arm as shown above (the holes exist in the LX trailing arm).

I'll write myself a reminder & take a picture of all the mounting points if you would like when I get off of work today.

It is just the two bushings that hold onto the rear cross member & the two links that connect to the trailing arm like the picture.

It is also possible to use rivet nuts. You hold the swaybar in place with the mounting brackets and mark the spots where the holes should be. Then drill holes in those spots and install rivet nuts, which are a sort of threaded insert. That is what we did on our race car and it has held through thousands of miles of endurance racing.
