    Must share more information

    How did this happen?

    Are you running an upgraded rear sway?

    I don't not want this to happen during a high speed turn.

    Please update with mo info.

    What upgrades are done to your car? I have to say it sucks when these things brake. Had one brake at the track with my prelude and the rear end of the car was moving all over the place.

    suk02: mine broke, too... the ones for the civic si were very hard to find (two weeks order) -- through my research i found out that you can use the same ones as the 02 civic ex. that's what i'm riding on now. they are about 40 bucks each from the dealer...

    Sorry about the lack of info guys.

    This didn't happen to me. I was just snooping around my dad's shop and saw this on his work bench. It came off another Civic which had an upgraded sway.

    glw: Did your endlinks break b/c of autocrossing? You're not running any aftermarket sway bars right?

    no, i'm running the progress sways both front and rear...

    showstoppers sent me to a shop that installed the rear swaybar upside down... the right endlink broke on the ride home from glendale... so i'm pretty sure that is what broke it. i installed new honda endlinks and had the swaybar reinstalled correctly and all is well again. i'm considering buying the custom endlinks that a fellow member was working on, but want to make sure they're legal for sts class.

    Oh, I thought you only had the strut bars, not the sways. So it was something weird like an improperly installed bar that broke them. Got it.

    I saw those endlinks, I hope they're legal for STS, too, since that might be the best option if the worst happens. Anyone know?
