    Strut Bar Help

    Hey Guys, Im getting my corspot rear strut bar in tomorrow and before i put it on i wanted your input.
    I was gona do it without jacking it up since i dont think it matters..But for those who have ever taken off there suspension, do you torque your strut towers down? If so is 43 ft/pound?

    thanks

    On mine there is some metal that was layered right next to it, kind of hard to explain but you will understand once you see it. But since some eps seem to be alil different you might not have it in the way. I tried just tighting the shit out of it but i started bending the mounting bracket on the bar. Good news is that it not much and if you have a dremal tool you can grind it off.. and if you dont have one its worth getting because you will use it again.
