IPD does not tell you about the need to drop the sub-frame in order to install the front bar. I sent them an e-mail many moons ago suggesting that they mention this little tid-bit in their catalog, as it is no small thing to drop the frame. Indeed, I had indefinitley postponed installing my front one, until the opportunity arose during a steering rack replacement.

To my knowledge, IPD has yet to mention this in their ink or "on-line" catalogs. It is very nice that they provide the PDF file instructions for the rear bar (he said sarcastically) as that is a fairly simple bolt-up job. I would rather have seen some instructions on installing the front bar.

That being said, I now have the hefty front bar and HD end links installed. You will notice the difference.
