Default Blox LCA for my Gsr

Well I bought silver Blox LCA's for my 99 Gsr. The box says "BXSS-20203-SI
88-95 Honda Civic/Del Sol, 90-01 Acura Integra" Well I tried installing them today and wasn't able to do it. They fit properly but there is no hole for the swaybar to attatch to, nor the abs wire. Are these not ment for my car or do I have to buy something else?

The part number is correct. Have you tried to call Blox?

I think I might have figured it out... Since my car is up on jack stands, the LCA isnt at its right position... So maybe this is whats making the swaybar endlink seem as if it is too high because the lca is lower at the side where the tire is (dont know if this makes sense). So am I suppose to lower my car a little to make it align to the hole?? And am I suppose to buy a nut for the bolt?

I had to buy a bolt and nut to mount the swaybar endlinks on my Omnipower LCA's. The ABS wire is going to just have to hang loose since there are no provisions for it built into those LCA's.

If you have a second jack, you can raise the tire up a little to ease the installation.

I can't use the same bolt it already has for the endlinks, and just buy a nut?

Possibly. I am running the Comptech swaybar, so the endlinks are different from stock.

ummm...i have blox LCA's and they matched up with my sway bar perfectly. Also you need to jack up your arm a bit to ease the installation.

dont tighten all the bolts until you do a 1G preload.

basically jack up each corner of the suspension (assuming u only have one jack) until its about to lift the whole car, and then tighten the bolts to spec.

this will solve any binding/squeaking issues down the line

I also forgot to add that i don't have ABS (hallelujah!!!) on my 94' DC4!!! so i din't have to worry about an ABS line to install. there's holes in the LCA to use a ghetto zip tie in them though...lol. but on the sway bar part you're going to have to purchase a nut to tighten the sway bar bolt to the hole in it. also another helpful hint look at your new parts before the installation of that part. to give you a heads up of what your up against. like any fabrications and such. it saves alot of precious man-hours as well.
