hmmm maybe UPS left your order with a neighbor? Didn't they leave a slip on your door?

I'll be d*mned, I stepped outside the garage and what do I see? The UPS guy came back and dropped my set in the driveway. (The delivery confirmation they issue yest. was not correct) At least I got my set Kudos to WSCP once again for the effective communication yesterday eve and today about the delivery issue.

Thanks, yeah, I decided to go ahead and remove it, made the job much easier and it was no big deal to remove it, just took another 10 mins.

Haven t done my install yet, most likely this week. For those of you who have done this, do you have to remove the strut bar? I saw it also says to remove the head cover but i wouldn't think that's necessary. I wanna do this as quick as possible haha.

I did mine with only removing the front half of the engine cover . it would have been easier without the strut bar but i left it on .

I did mine this weekend, I did remove the strut bar, as I was also doing HFC's. The passenger side was harder than the drivers side... The drivers side seemed to fit a bit better..

Ok, really stupid question haha, feel free to point and laugh after... when putting the strut bar back on, do the bolts need to be super tight, torqued on or will a standard ratchet do the trick?? Im paranoid about things lol.

Go ahead, laugh away lol
