Ok i just got my h-brace and sfc's. I know i will have to have the sfc's welded on. But how do i go about installing the h-brace. Well my main question is where do i want to jack the rear end of the sho at. So that it doesn't mess up the alignment. And any other help or tips on the install would be great....

Thanks

Jack the rear in the regular place. I jack it on the rear locating link box in front of the rear tires. Jack both sides. If you are not changing your lateral arms then it is easy. Unbolt the four nuts inside the torque box and then tap the bolts backwards until they are flush with the inside of the box. You don't have to pull the bolts out. The arms should stay in place. Put your H-brace up in the box and push the 4 bolts back through the H-brace. Re-attach nuts and torque. I forget the torque specs and my manual is out in the cold garage 50 feet from the house and it's raining. :)

Here should be an example of your finished product.

Don't recall the torque settings and can't find the email that I used initially. The install is pretty simple and only took me 1/2 hour. Most of that time was spent getting the proper tools under the car.
