Fitting guide for Upper and Lower Strut Braces

[Quiksilver_TR]

Has anyone got or can anyone do a fitting guide for the front Upper and lower Strut braces.
I have read various instructions on how to fit but want to be 110% sure that I can do it before I purchase them.

Cheers

There easy!!!!!!!

Top:- Undo the 6 13mm bolts on the struts then fit the brace, put bolts back in then tighten the bace if its adjustable.

Bottom:- Jack up car, Undo 17mm i think wishbone bolts, fit brace then reverse.

LOWER STRUT - I tried fitting it both on a 4 poster and jacking the car up.

I did find it a bit easier on the 4 poster, but its really easy.. undo the bottom wishbone bolts and
line up the bottom strutbrace.

Rotate bolts through the holes in strut, fit nut and tighten

really easy to do 8)

wishbone brace, undo 17mm bolt and 18mm nut... 10 mins MAX!

strut brace, make sure you dont over tighten the nuts as there only about 25 ib's torque

Cheers guys.
Have you got any pictures of the wishbone bolts?

[Freedo]

errr, its a bolt and nut.

its the only 17/18mm bolt/nut down there...

[Quiksilver_TR]

Yeah, it was just the position that I was not sure on.

Simple as that? Unscrew and screw???

yup

[Chadders]

i would reccomend that be VERY careful when you tighten the upper brace as you'll snap the bolts easily!

And you dont wanna do that, there a basterd! ;)

what i said ^, they have very low torque ratings...

you dont need to take the actual bolts out of the wishbones mate just undo the nuts and fit them over the bolt ends and retighten
