Re: Installing OMP Strut Brace 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be Charles Linden on  Mon Jan 15 09:23 CST 2001 [RELATED]

1. Does anyone know the correct torque values when reinstalling the strut bolts?

You will have to ask someone else to be sure but mine are always at around 30 lb/ft

2. Do I remove the black piece that holds the ABS cable and reinstall that piece over the brace?

You can do it a few differnt ways. I felt my ABS cable loose and tucked it under the brace

3. Do I need to get a front-end alignment after I install the brace?

No.

4. Do I move the washers that are currently between the bolts and tower to above the strut brace or below the strut brace? It looks like if you leave the black ABS holder I would leave them below the brace for leveling.

If you leave the ABS holder on the right side leave the washers. If no then there is no need for the washers.
