Front Upper Strut Bar Install ???

Hello,

I just bought a DC Sports Front Upper Strut Bar, and I have heard different things about what to do to your car before installation. Some say the car needs to stay "ON" the ground, while others say that the car needs to be completely raised "OFF" the ground.

Which is the best way to do it?

Thanks,

KT

I put mine on while it was on the ground. Just kept checking the torque of the bolts over the course of three weeks to make sure it was snug and torqued correctly as the suspension moved and it settled into position.

Haven't had to mess with or tighten anything on it for almost a year now.

I also did my Neuspeed install with the car on the ground. No problems.
