Product Description

The Whiteline BHF52 is a direct-fit, non-adjustable, 27 mm front heavy duty sway bar engineered for 1996-2000 Honda Civic EK/EJ-platform models with non-Si trims. Designed to "activate more grip," this upgrade stiffens the front roll resistance, reducing body lean and enhancing cornering precision--all while retaining factory ride comfort. It's an ideal performance improvement that delivers measurable handling gains for street and track use.

The bar is constructed from solid steel, featuring a durable powder-coat finish and built-in grease reservoirs to ensure smooth, low-friction operation. Synthetic elastomer bushings with knurled interiors, plus lateral lock clamps, prevent unwanted bar shift. Installation is straightforward using your existing OEM bar and ball links--no drilling required.

Fitment is confirmed through 2000. Fitment confirmed through 2024. 2025 unconfirmed. Excludes Si/Type R models; only 1.6 L SOHC/DOHC FWD trims supported. Backed by a 3-year/60,000 mi warranty, the BHF52 is perfect for Civic owners seeking durable, performance-oriented suspension upgrades within validated specifications.
