Hello, I own a del sol S 93, it has no sway bars, I already have a set of oem del sol si sway bars, but I need to know how to install it.

Does any one have pics of yours oem sway bars installed??, pictures could help me a lot.

Rear:

Not sure if this helps at all. Do you have the end-links? And do you have LCAs with mounting holes for swaybars?
If not, you need to get ahold of a set, both front and rear.

Thanks bro, I have front lca´s and I will get links, but on the rear I´m going to do the disk swap, already got the pieces, I think that the lca´s from this disk swap are good for sway bars.

Can you confirm if I´m rigth ???

Also do I need links for the rear sway bar???

Make sure your front LCA's have a mounting point (around where the pics in the thread show them) - though the Sol's LCA's are slightly different. The '93 del Sol S didn't come from the factory with a sway, and have different part numbers for the LCA's than the rest of the model line. Same with the rear - make sure you've got the mount points. Only the DOHC Sol came with the factory rear bar and compatible LCA's.

Which sway bar set are you installing? I know the Eibach kit came with endlinks for the front, but required existing OEM links for the rear.

if you got it from the ek/ej/em1(6th gen) Si (SiR Canada), all you would need (correct me if i'm wrong) is the sway bar, endlinks, d-brackets from it plus bolts, nuts, etc.

yes, since you said you have a 96 ex sedan (6th gen), the sways bar from the Si (SiR Canada) will bolt right up

Looks like you're well on your way. Just make sure you're LCA's look like these, and you'll be set.

hyjnx, I think you're good to go.

You'll need the stabilizer bracket - check your rear subframe and see if they're attached, just in case.

Don't forget about the sway bushings and brackets (28, 29).

For IanB: finally got it all on. LOVE the ride. Just slightly stiffer than OEM, rides smooth, and now with the 26mm front sway, corners FLAAAAT!!! Moderate drop (1.25"), and well worth the money!
