#2203, "RE: RRE lower front bar" In response to Reply # 1
Both bolts are already on the car. The bar will not fit on the right side without the spacer in place to keep a flush fit. Then you need the longer bolt to go through it to have enough threads screwed in to hold it in place. I only found one place that it would line up properly to fit the drilled holes in the bar. It also bends exactly centered under my header downpipe. I can see that the longitudinal brace on the left side of the car supports the left control arm. There is nothing that actually supports the right control arm(until now).
Steering response is much quicker and my chassis does not squeak one bit. I can see this will help limit understeer on the track. I will find out at the next autoX event on the 20th.
BTW: They also shipped an extra long bolt with my package. I did not use it and kept the factory one instead.
