apex sway bar

[woodchk454]

I searched atleast 40 pgs in apex and rx forum and came up with 1/2 of an answer. Looks like the apex sway bar is a 12 mm is this correct and will it fit my 03 rx? Is the 13mm worth $60 more in anyones opinion??

All "RX" & "APEX" come w/11mm as OEM, 12 & 13mm are after market which you can get from Pioneer Performance...and YES they will all fit your '03 but you need to change your bushings and links...

Be aware that there was an upgrade kit to add long links to 03's, but this kit used the original 10mm bar. If you have this upgrade kit, then the links are NOT COMPATIBLE with 04+ bar ends and you will still have to buy links and bushings. There were also some aftermarket 11mm bars available back then to fit the 03 links. Be sure to measure the splined ends of the shaft to determine compatibility. If the ends are about 1/2", then its ready for 04+ style bar, if its significantly smaller, then you need links and bushings.

Lazy, will the apex links work with the pioneer 13mm bar if I buy the bushings, it looks like the same part #. Im pretty sure Im screwed with using my links as it has the 10mm bar still. I think I updated my links in 04 so they are probly not going to work.


Would like to order this stuff this weekend so any additional help would be awesome.

And as always the members knowledge and helpfulness on this site continue to impress me. Thanks guys.

Since an "apex" is an 04+, I answered that in my last post.
