Both......sway bar.....(guess they are really "anti"-sway bars..)

Both......sway bar.....(guess they are really "anti"-sway bars..)As to the front, your CR-V already has an upper strut bar that ties the front towers together which is probably why no one bothers to make one for it. Have you looked into replacing the rubber bushings on the front (under vehicle) anti-sway bar with polyurethane?

honestly was thinkng about a rear sway bar....

Installed one on my 2006 HHR (FWD) and it made a dramatic difference....cornered much "flatter"

the chassis is the same as the 06+ civic....one would assume that the SI swaybar would be a bolt in affair and a considerable improvement over what is already there...the front as well I believe.

The chassis may be the same, but there are differences in the V and the Civic. There are likely to be clearance issues with trying to make something like that work.

I don't see why a civic's anything would ahve clearance issues on a V, but the other way around may be an issue, a V bar on a Civic. Especially the ground clearance route.

Does the RDX have anything underneath? I don't know I am sure if there is than it might bolt on with some drilling ACURA has to be diferent than HONDA.

What are those bars on the Back of the older Blazers and Bronkos that holds the rear tire attached onto it. I called it a sway bar because that is what it does. And my father looked at me like what the hell are you talking about?

I'd call that bar a "swing" bar, I know what you're talking about, and it doesn't necessarily "sway."
