I just got a beautiful '08 coupe EX-L Civic. I just bought a set of OEM Si sway bars (front and rear)off eBay. My question is: can the original sway bars be removed okay buy driving up on ramps, or will I have to raise the vehicle with a jack and put on jackstandsto take any weight/pressure off the suspension first. I also just put Si wheels on it, so I'm excited about the suspension mods to see if it will handle better. Also can I use the original links or will I need heavier ones with the Si sway bars...thanks, Thx

 

You should be able to swap bars by using ramps. You'll need 2, one for each side, though.

If your current endlinks fit on the new bars, you should be able to re-use them. The strength/rigidity of the endlinks isn't an issue.
