I just finished installing a little more than half of the bar, its too late to keep going. I was able to get the 2 longer a-arm bolts through without even touching the suspension following an old post i found. All you have to do is jack the car up, take off the front wheels, and pull down the dust boot around the shock, this will give you enough room to swap out those 2 bolts without touching your suspension, makes life easier, took about 30 mins to change both.

On to the bad news, according to the DIY and instructions, you are supposed to install both a-arm bolts and then mount the brackets under the hood. This was not possible for me, the longer bolt stuck out too far and there was no way to get all 3 holes lined up since one goes forward and the other 2 up. I had to go back, loosen the a-arm bolt until it was flush under the hood, mount the bracket in place, then go back under and screw the bolt all the way through the bracket. Planning on reworking the AC line and re-mounting the other bracket and bolt tomorrow morning, wish me luck.


Hope this helps

Considering replacing this with my Richie V2...
