at 2:56 did you use a small spacer washer with a thickness of about 3/8 inch? On my car there is a noticeable gap on my tein shocks. It looks like it needs a spacer there but im not sure. Or is it ok if there is a gap there?
How do you align your car after this ? Is it all camber and toe bars that do the work and then you tighten center brace ? I have the same set up with the megan toe and camber
Measure everything will get you close. After everything is installed though taking it to an alignment shop be the best option to dial everything in! Center brace should be tightened first before making any camber or toe adjustments.
do subframe Brace fit well ?i have the excatly same truhart Brace and LCA for my 2000 civic but my machanic told me LCA could hold well , but BRACE requires alot spacers to fit chassi and now im with Hardrace LCA BRACE kit came with Huge Swaybar witch is directly bolt on
If i remember correctly i did have to use some spacers which were not supplied. I think i noticed that after i finished the video and i should have added another clip to this of that but i did not. Also i think the bolts they supplied me were too long as well and i had to get different ones.
Id just cut the bolt on either side with a cutoff wheel or reciprocating saw blade to get the arm out then you can drill the piece thats in the nut out and try an easy out to get the remaining bolt out. Heat the nut to to get the remaining piece out to save the threads.
This video helps me how to install and great process bro! Thank you so much!
Anytime! Glad i could help!
Do the colors fade ?

I did not use a spacer. If you have that big of a gap id definitely use a spacer. You want that tight with no gap so shock cant move around.

Got any tips on how to remove those two bolts, one closet to the drum and the one right next to it, if they are snapped ?

@@Robbinsbuiltgarage thanks mans !!
get a left hand drill bit, and drill to the left. if you are lucky it will spin out. if not use a spiral extractor bit.
How does the bushings hold up? I got some cheap eBay ones and the bushings shitted within a month lol
Been over a year now and bushings are still good. And it’s his daily car.
How about a 6 month review on how the color is holding up
If i ever see the car again i can do an even longer review
