jdub, i had the same concern about putting a bar on the back of a DX, yeah, they should fit without any issue. But, Jim, would you be able to explain any mods/other parts that are needed to install a bar on a dx from an LX-i.

Just got a quote from Shox 425.60 for Koni's. They have free shipping on Koni's.

DX's and LX's don't come with the factory with rear sway bars. But they allready have all the mounting holes you will need to install all the brackets that I sent to you. You have all the parts you will need to install it. If you visit the "how to" section on this board it explains that to you and shows you how to install the bar.

Suspension Techniques offers a mounting kit for owners of DX and LX cars so they can mount their rear sway bar. Since I gave you my mounting hardware, if you ever wanted to upgrade to their bar, you won't need those mounts, you allready have them.
