I just ordered a 2001 TL type S swaybar to replace the one on my Accord LX. I was told by the guy in the Acura dealership parts dept. that I would be able to install it w/ my stock bushings and brackets. But, I have heard conflicting stories by people who have already done this. And some say, I dont need 'em and some say that my stock brackets are too small. I need some help in deciding if I really need to order these parts. Any step by step instructions or previous experiences w/ this would be helpful.

Thanx

Thanx, man...guess i need to go ahead and order those.

 

i'm there with ya....

 

Yep, 2 new bushings and 2 new brackets. You can, however, use the same bolts that held the brackets in place. But instead of the TL-S bushings (if you want polyurethane bushings), you can try asking Energy Suspension for polyurethane bushings. Some people like the stiff ride of polyurethane bushings in their cars.
