Taking off the rear tie bar (LCA), do I use TL-S or CL-S sway

[kenton]

Man, that one guy who posts here was RIGHT. That cheap rear tie bar has worn out the inside of my tires within about a week. I'll snap a picture of the tires soon, but the inside of them has worn out a little bit. I'm not nearing where the inside of them is bald but tomorrow I'm bending over for an alignment (I don't want a rotation, because the front tires are ****ing-A perfect.)

You guys think it's my tires, as my mechanic told me they were a "soft compound?" They're Kumho 711, I got all 4 shipped for $300.60 from TireRack. But anyways, do I use the TL-S or CL-S rear sway and what did you guys pay for it?

That sucks about your tires. I agree with your decision though, I'd rather suck it up and get the alignment then let em wear out.

I looked at both the CL-S and TL-S rear sways up at http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/ and they have the same part number so they share the same rear sway, same price and everything too.

At home I have a picture of a scanned invoice from somebody who bought the rear sway, bushings, and whatever else is needed. I think it was around $70ish from an Acura dealership. I'm at work right now but I can post it up once I get home in 3 hours or so.

damn, I dont think I noticed within a week.
Get the TL-S sway bar. That one makes a real difference.
If you liked the handling when you had on the tie bar on, the Sway bar will feel the same if not better.

I got the sway bar off of an TL-S that I saw someplace tore apart.
I guess someone jack'd it and really did a number on it.
Taking this off taking that off.

So I did what most people would of done.
I went home got me a pair of rubber gloves and a wrench and got to work.

I wanted to take the end links etc... but i'd rather invest money on that at least.

The TL-S bar and the CL-S bar are the same bar. Be sure to buy the right size brackets and rubber bushings, as you'll need larger ones for the larger diameter bar.

What are the right size bushings and brackets?

Qnty: Part # Desc.

1 52300-S3M-A01 rear "spring" (sway bar)
2 52306-S0E-015 Bushings
2 52308-S3M-A00 Brackets
1 52320-S84-A01 Right Link
1 52325-S84-A01 Left Link

I'd get the endlinks cause chances are the ones you have on there now are going to be a pain to get off. if you don't use the parts you can always return them and get your money back.
