Got a civic ek and just bought a front Whiteline swaybar with no endlinks. I can't find Whiteline endlinks anywhere. Are any others compatible hardrace, ek4 or dc2 links?

Stock/ hardrace should do fine.
If you don't have current endlinks/ a swaybar, you'll need gli front lca's though. From memory there is nowhere to mount endlinks to on the cxi front lca's
Correct. Will need GLI or EK4 / EM1 LCA's. I fitted a pair of hard race adjustable end links onto my EK4 no problem. These are a good option if you can't get hold of OEM ones.
OEM and hardrace are better than Whiteline end links anyway. Whiteline use bushes, whereas OEM ones have ball joints.
Yer I've got em1 control arms. When I bought the whitline swaybar the guy said he was using gli endlinks but the swaybar was hitting somewhere. He said ek4/ek9 ones are longer and will fit with no hitting.
Installed the 27mm sway bar with GLI endlinks
Swaybar was hitting everywhere LCAs possibly somewhere else to. Swaybar removed, any suggestion how to stop it from hitting? Longer endlink?
You were using gli ones and said the ek4/ek9 ones are longer, perhaps try them
Stock EK4 front end links are about 55mm long centre to centre. Can't see GLI ones being much shorter than that. Aftermarket sway bar might not sit as well as the standard one. You might be able to relieve the flanges on the LCA's slightly where the bar hits it (only a smidge, and blend it to get rid of any grinding marks).
27 is pretty big - you're better to use the stock EK4 (26mm) bar and put a bigger rear bar on. Civics don't really need any more front bar.
Thanks for the advice guys Ill try ek4 endlinks first
Ek4 endlinks didn't work
Adjustable ones/ whiteline or asr would be the go then I imagine
Can't find Whiteline ones anywhere. Thinking of just selling it
