TL and TL-S front/rear sway bars upgrade info

[Toshbar]

If you go with the thickest rear bar, I'd get the upgraded end link kit.
Fronts should be good for you but I was going to upgrade to TL-S links since I have the standard 4 cyl ones now.

I have since reconsidered doing the away bars and am just going to drive my car as is. I don't track it or even drive like a bat out of hell so there's no point.

Sounds good thanks, just wanted to confirm fitment on my vehicle.

When I order the Moog end links, should I order them for a 03 Accord (my car) or a xx TL-S?

They're the same for 7th gen accord and 3rd gen TL.

[cotton617]

3rd Gen TL is 04-08 correct?

[Aviography]

3+ years on TL-S F/R bars using the original end-links, I drive my cars with "spirit" and have had no issues with the OEM end-links yet.

sorry if it has been covered, but I was wondering if there would be any modifications necessary to install 07 TLS 6MT front and rear sway on my 06 accord v6. ive heard about about slightly modifying the exhaust hanger,but will this be necessary for the rear sway bar install? thanks for any help/suggestions

The rear exhaust hanger issue (from what I can remember) is an I-4 only issue. It's also not difficult to do if it's needed. And yes, it has been discussed before in this thread, so if you still have questions about it or anything else dealing with the installation, please, please start at page one of this thread and read, as this issue and others have been discussed.

I know this topic has been beat to death but I have a few questions about part numbers and balancing bias.

I have a Progress 62.1017 22mm adjustable rear sway-bar and I'm trying to decide what my best option for an end-link kit would be for it. Also.. I'm trying to decide which front sway-bar I should get to allow me the best buffered bias between front and rear bars.

I have an 04 i4 Coupe for weight distribution purposes in the discussion.

There have been a lot of part numbers thrown around so I'm not sure which are the most current accepted part#'s for my application.


My hypothesis:
I need a TL-S front sway-bar, TL-S front and rear end-links, and front bushings.

[Pyrolysis]

A quick response on this would be appreciated, I only have a short time left on my dealership discount.

I would guess the TL-S solid front sway bar would be the best match with your 22mm rear. You'll need bushings for it. Whether you need end links is subject to question. Some folks say you need them and others say no. I didn't change my end links (I have the hollow TL front and TLS rear) and have never had any issues, but others have had different experiences.

[frenzal]

I have both TL-S bars on my 6-6 coupe. You need the bars, the bushings and the holders. I used the Accord endlinks.

[Pyrolysis]

is the part number for the end-link kit the same for both front and rear? I want to upgrade both front and rear end-links to the TL-S links thanks.

The "upgraded" rear link kit looks like the oem accord one?

[Toshbar]

No they are different. The rear link kit is $70 or so and the fronts I was going to do were the factory TL-S links, about $13 per side. I think you'd have to drill out the Accord control arms to fit these.

[Pyrolysis]

I heard somewhere there was an aftermarket brand on the front end-links? Maybe those wouldn't require boring the control-arms?
