ok.. i took pics this time.

obviously jack your car up, and use jack stands. only tools required are the allen wrench and 14" wrench for breaking the end links loose, and a 12MM socket for the 4 bolts around the bushings.





step 1. use the allen wrench to hold the stud from spining. take the nut off.




step 2. seperate the end links.




step 3. use your 12MM socket and ratchet to bring down the 4 bushing bracket bolts.




step 5. creativitly wiggle your OEM sway bar out from under the car.



now, a comparison.

















step 6 (optional). i tired to get the new sway bar in.. but its soo damn big, and heavy, i decided to help my self out, and lower the rear exhust, and slide the RSB straight in. there's 4 muffler hangers that need to be let loose to let the exhaust sag.






step 6 (opional) i used white lithum greese when i asembled mine.. for shits and giggles.. with or without.. OEM is without.. and reverse your breakdown.

4 bushing brakects.. connect the 2 end links with the allen wrench and 14MM wrench, and your all set.




a nice shot of my perfect camber!

Nice pics with the install. Is that a Comptech RSB? Didn't know it comes in that color.

Any negatives with beefing up the swaybar that much (from 15mm to 22mm)?

That said, the a 15mm rear swaybar on the TSX seems too small. Heck, didn't the much smaller and lighter Integra GSR have a rear swaybar that size?

What is Step 4?

i debated back and forth about getting it.. i have a auto.. but i figured after the Tein's.. sime nice wheels.. hell, its 100 bucks.. lets go for it.. i put it in, and driving down a straight line, i know the back is straighter. i have taken any wild turns yet, but on the drive home, the rear feels more stabile and follows the fronts better.

and yes, its a brand new comptech bar, straight out of the box from my local acura dealership.

step 4 was take a break.. hahaha

for some refreshment

You'll love it. The harder you take a turn the more impressed you'll be with the reduced body lean and more neutral attitude.

Very nice pics and write-up, Built B 16 A.

even though i cheated, and used a lift.. once you get it in the air.. took me maybe all of 15 mins to put the new bar in.

the trick was lowering the mufflers. after that it was home street.

thanks for the writeup
