Talking Install Help for Steeda Strut Tower Brace and G-Trac brace

I just purchased the Steeda Strut Tower Brace and G-Trac brace but I don't have any instructions on how to install them. Can someone please help?

fairly simple, just bolt the g-track in place of the old brace and the strut tower brace uses the 2 inner studs on the front strut towers to mount to. just take off the nuts, put it on, and tighten the nuts on top of it.

took me about 3 minuts from start to finish for the strut towr brace.

you will love it, i didnt get the g-track brace but i love the strut tower brace. and it looks hot too.

Thanks for the info. I installed the Strut Tower Brace. It was pretty easy like everybody said. My jack is leaking fluid so I took my car down to firestone and they installed the G-Trac bar for $20.

Did they tighten everything back up at ride height or fully
unloaded, hanging on the shocks, suspension height?
Ride Height =s RIGHT
Fully Unloaded =s WRONG
