Got my rear strut brace in

[BenR]

Fraid thats the only way your going to get a solid mounting!!!

that bar there connectos to the shocker top threads, which seems a tad odd, and they have rubber bushings...........might be there for a reason......if there is a moment of big flex....solid mounts on the socker threads could snap them.

Lol..... Not unless you have these super springs that will catapult the car forward and break off the subframe rear bar......

Or they could just be normal and once undone will just be sitting in same place..... Just make sure your cars not jacked up!

LOL. Me+spanner+car normally ends in tears..... took me 2 hours just to fit my blue sidelight bulbs! I did do my replacement filter element myself though which was quite courageous I thought.

OMP do a rear strut brace as well as K-tec, but i read somewhere that it squeaks like hell, im guessing thats why the K-tec one has rubber bushes

No rubber bushes with mine (arrived last night). Looks like it fits on top of the existing rubber bush. Very nicely made though.
