tower brace install


Recommended Posts

Posted

I bought one of those strut tower braces off gmparts.com or whatever, I got the holes marked on the plates. I know knothing about suspension though...so before I unscrew the plates to drill, is there anything I should know. Have the car jacked up? I assume those plates hold something down.

DO NOT jack the car up! :shock: That would be Baaaad times. (Although you CAN technically jack it up as long as the tires touch ground, but it's not required at all, Don't do it.)

 

Just let the weight of the car keeps the springs compressed, then take the strut plate off and put the bolts on, then re-install the plates and install the STB...

 

Phew..
