did you get new swaybars? don't they come w/ new bushings sized properly for it? If you are gonna order the nopi bushings, make sure you get the right size. Prothane has the wrong size for 5th gen non-v6 ex accord owners. v6 = 25mm bar/bushing, non-v6 = 27.2mm, and they only sell 25mm bushings.

I have 5th gen accord front 25mm prothane bushings that I didn't use (came w/ my kit but i have a 27.2mm bar). Also have 15mm rear sway bar bushings, and maybe 22mm front sway bar bushings. I need to get rid of them, if you need any of those sizes email me.

My swaybars came with rear bushings because they are bigger then stock. The front bars are the same size as stock but stiffer, they say to use existing bushings for the fronts. The front bushings are listed at 26.5mm. So I don't think your's will fit. Thanks for the offer though. Have you used the Prothanes in the past? If so did they squeak?

How are the front endlinks? That's all they make for the 6th gens. So that's what I would be getting? Are they a big difference? Do they make noise?
