I looked up for infos but didn't find what i need...
Taking all up to install my GT-4 3 point strut bar i've been hit by the biggest doubt ever.
Thats the very first time i'm going to work on the suspension without someone more experienced by me.
Do i need to get up the car and/or pay particullar attention unscrewing the bolts on top end of strut?

Thanks for answering such a stupid question XD
And, please, if there's a post that explains this, be patient, probably i'm blind XD

the gt4 brace is a three point brace. strut to firewall, fire wall to strut. it just isn't as beefy as the cone, jspeed, or trd. the struts aren't bridged together either.

as far a installing, it is an easy. you may need to jack to car up for the bar to fit onto the strut studs... bolt everything back up and you are done. pretty much a plug and play deal.

hmm
May? Have to do or not? With the car up and the bolts off the suspension comes down, right? Then, maybe, i have to look up if everything comes with the same angles as before...that's it? I dont feel safe XD

Without pulling up the front wich problems can i have?

your not gonna drop the whole suspension. just jack the car up enough for the bar to fit snug in with the strut studs.
