Those bolts are long but yeah reuse the stock ones. It took me approx 4 mins to install mine since I have a lift I can use and also power tools.

I honestly cant tell a difference if you ask me, its sort of a placebo thing. For the first 10 mins your like wow thinking in your mind that theres somthing new under the car haha but after that I cant really tell.

 

Ah finally installed. Man I wish I had a lift...

Anyway, I decided to use Rhino ramps, suprising I was able to go up even with my '04 lip, I think it touched slightly, but no biggie. After a check nothing damaged

Funny thing, even with the torque numbers posted and looking in the service manual right before I still somehow managed to get them mixed up

No review on the bars yet, haven't really had a chance to test them out. Even if they don't do a thing, they look nice lol

Car on the ramps


With the limited space I couldn't get myself and the camera under, so I just took some laying on the ground

 

is this the same as rick's X-brace?

 

No, but I also have Rick's x-brace, you can see it in the 3rd pic.

Here's a thread with more info on it.

Did you have an issue with the center section hitting against the tranny?
