My guess is he needs the clearance in the wheel well to drill holes and put the nuts on the bolts, aka, take the wheel off. Ramps won't do him much good for this install. If he could do it on ramps then, well, he wouldn't need them.

- .RJ - 04-12-2006
It was free.
I didnt bother to add the ITR barrRrRz between the rear LCA's or in the trunk, because that wouldnt be free.

Why do certain cars come with them from the factory? I want to see a real test that shows an improvement or no improvement.
- .RJ - 04-12-2006
You wont find real tests, because measuring the torsional stiffness of a car isnt something the avg shadetree weekend wrencher can do.
You will find a lot of conjecture like "my dashboard creaked less when I go up my driveway at an angle y0, it works!!11!1"

All I know is that when I installed my front strut tower bar I had to let the car sit on jackstands for awhile and use a prybar to get the bar onto the shock towers.
This meant that I had a decent amount of suspension sag which is common on these cars with higher miles.
I would say the strut bar made a big difference with the overall rigidity of the front of the car.
