Default need some help...

I just bought an SLP stb used. The bar is in good shape but didn't come with the mounting hardware. Does anyone know what I need to install it, what size bolts, nuts, washers, etc...

There isn't any mounting hardware, you just remove the four nut's ( two on each side ) on top of your shock towers. You use the same nuts, I think the torque is something like 35 ft/lbs... I'll see if I can't check on that.

It's 32 ft/lbs, to torque the inside nut's we used a Crow foot wrench, if you don't have a torque wrench just tighten them down good and tight... don't go crazy. You want the car sitting on level ground with the weight of the car on the suspension.

Stick a washer under those nuts (stainless if you have them available) to help keep the nuts from chewing into the STB (when you tighten it, or over time). Just a thought.....good luck
