eg lca

[THRILR]

hey guys,

im replacing my rear lca in my eg vti cuz the bushings are gone.. I got a pair of eg gli rear lca for free. but the problem is, since the gli lca dont have the hole for the rear lower sway bar .. can I install the gli lca without the rear lower sway bar and instead use a rear struct bar.. and still achieve the same handling performance..??

no.
rear swaybar works very differently and is alot more beneficial than a strut tower bar.
on a very basic level of explanation, the strut tower bar is just there to act as a brace for the chassis (doesn't do much at all), whereas the swaybar is a connector between the independent suspension arms that kind of ties them together if you like, so when one side moves it is stabilized by the other side

Rear swayber is a far far superior suspension modification compared to a rear strut bar

summary is replace the bushes of your existing LCA , or get another pair of LCAs off a DC2 , DC4 or EG5 to suit your car.
