Nope...I am hoping that someone can custom fabricate them though. Anyone have contacts that would do this?? How much and location would be great!

True, but they still give a little too much body roll. Hoping that someone would make sways out of better material and maybe a little thicker. Does anyone know how thick the CL-S Comptech sways are?

94-97 accords won't fit? I don't see why not cause the frame and most of the car is identical. I don't see why they would place the mounts for the sways in different locations? Oh well.. if you tried and it didn't work.... oops on my part.

Yeah I wondered about fitting 94-97 accords on, but unfortunately, they changed the bushings on our cars and that is preventing a swap. It really does suck because people that want to make it for us would have to fabricate the bushing just for our cars

Yeah I love these things I got them early on when I think they just came out so the price wasn't too agreeable, but I still love them.

Hey Folks,

Here is the deal on the sway bars. According to Suspension Techniques Tech Dept, the bars the they make are usually the same diameter but are solid versus the factory hollow. The application was confirmed by A & H Motorsport that sell OEM Honda and Acura. The part numbers are the same for one but not the other. Getting polyurethane bushings would help some. Suspension Techniques has no plans of designing a set for the 1st Gen CLs.
