It should bolt on from the rear of the rear subframe.

make sure you mark where the adjustment washers are. at the front & rear of the rear subframe.

try to get someone to help you unbolt the bolts to make sure nothing gets unajusted. Get one person to hold the bolt towards the front to stay steady as you loosen the rear one.

I placed the brace between the bolt & that adjustment washer. & tighten again.

I' did get another wheel allingment done just after installation.


It only fits one way to clear the exshaust
I also had to dremel out one of the bolt holes slightly to make it fit.
hold it up against it & see if you need to modify it before you go unbolting.


hope thats the correct procedure & hope it helps.

pics....to lazy for that right this minute. :roll:
