Thought it may have went there but i wasnt to sure about removing that plate and fitting it that close to those arms with the rubbers

hopfully it will be easy to fit and nothing falls out when u undo those bolts u know if there was any tips to doing it

well it uses the same mounts as the h brace and nothing moved when i undid them although if you lift the car via the wheels then they may fall off. make sure you do them up tight aswell as mine worked themselfs loose.

yeh, prity much. i had the car jacked up from the chassis then put the axel stands under the part just behind the wheels where you put the scissor jack then took out the jack on the chassis. thats it really, you get some noises when stuff moves but nothing will move out of place or come off. let me know if you need help.

Basically NO. You want the wheels on the ground when you do these up.

Work on the car on stands or a 4 post lift with ramps, or even in a pit ensuring the wheels are holding the cars weight. This stops the bushes being twisted/stressed when in their normal position.

Obviously you should take all appropriate safety precautions when working under your car. Like never have your esky more than 2m away etc

You can let the wheels hang loose, its not a problem. I did it, with no trouble.

Air tools helped a lot

Yes you can do it with the wheels hanging loose...it's just when you tighten them up and drop the car you risk twisting the fuck outa the bushes. Your choice.
