Default Vert Rear Swaybar install question

Getting ready to swap a Steeda rear swaybar into my GT Vert. Question: Has anyone else done this without removing the diagonal cross-bracing below the swaybar? I can't tell if it will fit though or not. I think the cross-braces are only on verts, but I could be wrong...

Thanks in advance!

Yes, you must take off one wheel and slide it in from the side. It takes some twisting and turning, but it goes in without too much fuss. Definitely easier than removing the braces.

worthwhile mod for non-track verts?

Drbobvs: Thanks a million. That's just what I was looking for. PS -- Your car is one of my inspirations on this forum!!

Larmo: I'm all street, just want to tighten up the handling a bit. From what I've picked up on this forum (specifically from Crazy Al), the basic rear end upgrades are: LCA's, panhard bar & brace, and stiffer rear swaybar.
