strut bar question.

[Rendon LX-i]

Well i just got some Front+rear strut bars for a 90 accord, so tomorrow(if i get around to it) I will be drilling and/or cutting the end bars up. 1 hole on the front+back line up on each. Ill take Before+after pics if i get around to doing it.

sounds good man let us know

[Tdurr]

So i got the rear bar on, only one hole tho. i gotta get the plate welded. Pics will be up tomorrow cuz im at a friends house now. lol. All you gotta have to get the front +rear on is a good welder+a good cutting tool. Front is gonna be tricky cuz i gotta get wires outta the way.

yup thats just like that. Also you can get a lower rear tie bar from a 90-97 accord and it blots right up thats what i have you dont notice anything but if your behind me you can see a shiney bar at the bottom like the civics lol

like this



Also you can see i had to cut the jack support or w/e the hell it is to make it fit other that thats it.

Didn't you have to cut the rear jack support to fit that?

As far as strut bars go, I have one of the few remaining Ractive front bars. Direct bolt-on for the 3g. Sadly they haven't been made for years

I also have a "Justin" rear strut bar... basically a modified 4th gen bar. Works nicely, hard as hell to install.

Yeah i had to sadly cut up the jack support a bit but still strong enough to jack up the car still.

I don't see the point in using a lower rear tie bar on our cars. They make them for the civic because the LCAs attach to the unibody instead of a crossmember. You're probably going to be bending control arms before getting any notable flex in that crossmember. Looks nice though.

[Rendon LX-i]

I havent bent nothing. Like i said i havent notice anything just looks nice. if you have a extra 20 bucks then go for it. maybe if you get a Rear strut bar then go ahead.

lol i forgot to tell my buddy to send me the pics.. im dumb...

[Tdurr]

Pics!!! better late then never..









That was the rear.

Front(not mounted)




hehe... need to get another inch cut then get some welding done. The fronts need to have the tabs cut off like the rear ones closer to the hole tho, and then welded on going like 2-4 cm on each side. The center hole is fine.

Hope this helps someone.

[Rendon LX-i]

nice man nice

[Tdurr]

thanks. I need to get around to welding the tabs on. If i put the cam in this weekend(hehe) then ill prob get around to welding the stuff on/cutting the fronts to fit.
