Hello
I noticed you are going to be installing a UMI Performance strut tower brace and a single adjustable pan hard bar. And when installing the Pan hard bar I would suggest mounting the chassis side first then if you can use the rear to shift to the position needed for the hardware. And then get your measurements you need to center the rear. The strut tower brace is pretty much 4 washers and remove nuts and install and then re-tighten. If you have any questions or any other problems feel free to ask!
Thanks
Brad

one other thing to mention when doing the front shocks/springs.....on the driver's side, two of the bolts that hold the shock assembly in place are Torx head bolts, which is the main reason you have to loosen the brake booster, so you can get the Torx tool in there to loosen them.
when you go to reassemble everything, move those two Torx bolts over to the passenger's side, and move the two hex-headed bolts you're replacing over there to the driver's side.....that way, if you ever have to remove the shock assembly on the driver's side again, you will have to loosen the brake booster a LOT less than before, and maybe not at all.
