Default simple question about rear lower strut bar

hey guys. i have a 92 hatch and got a rear lower strut bar from a local performance store. it came with the bar, 2 bolts and 2 spacers. my friend told me they jipped me 2 spacers, saying that there should be 4 spacers all together, 2 for each end. with what i have right now, i would only have 1 spacer at each end. who is right here...? whoever has one would obviously be able to tell me, and i would greatly appreciate it.

thanks

look at it and tell me where you'd put another spacer on each end... :dyou have it setup just like it needs to be with one spacer on each end. Just need to bolt it up.

how about you try to put it on anyway - there might not be any issue at all

certified mechanic doesnt mean he knows everything. It also depends who certified him. The grease monkeys that work at pep boys think they are mechanics.....nuff said.
