So for a long time now now my Suspension Techniques rear sway bar/tie bar combo has made a sqeaking sound from the bushings I am constantly regreasing it to stop it only to have come back again, well last monday it started to make a creeking noise. At this point im so tired of this thing making wack sounds that I am just gonna take it off and sell it. Well I jacked up the rear of my car yesterday to just take the swap bar off and this what I see, the creaking noise was from my LCA mount being ripped off the car by the sway bar, now the reason i chose this setup was it had the reinforcement on the tie bar to stop it from doing exactly what it did. The even worse part is my dad brought his mig welder over today to fix it and the wire feed motor took shit, so now im pretty much stuck until we fix it or get another welder. I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN RIGHT NOW ITS REDICULOUS!

Driver's side LCA mount this is what it should look like.


Now the passenger side that has been ripped off the car.

A lot of honda-tech members have done the Integra Type R rear sway bar onto their civics, only to find out the bar is too strong and rips off the mount like mine did. The combo setup i bought was made so that it would not do exactly what it did. So tomorrow will be spent going to a shop that repairs welders so I can get this shit welded up.
