Installing A Strut Bar?
don't need to be torqued...simple bolt on job...take the bolts off...put the bar on...put bolts back on...tighten it all up...if u got trouble taking em off go to a shop w/ power tools and ask to borrow some or see if they can loosen them for u...thas what i had to do for the front

Took about 15 minutes.
It is MUCH easier if you jack the car up. Also, if you have a super duper nice bar, the measurements are very exact. You will need to jack the car up to push the strut bolts in that extra 2-4 mm to get the bar on. After that, torque it down.

jack the car up first and unscrew the screws to the strut put the strut bar on..then tighten the strut screw a little, then tighten the strut bar then and then tighten the strut screws. good luck, hope that helped
ive always tourqued my bolts for the struts, ive been told to in my trains class for college iw as in the toyota t-10 program ford asset program and soon honda program. ive always been told to torque the nuts on, i personally dont see a need to except the fact being a part of the suspension but as tight as u can make them plus a lil more will be more than enoug but if u went to aldata im sure somewhere there woudl be torque specs for ever part of the car.
get some friend to try installing it for like a beer then if he/she can't get it done get a new one.
sorry man.
