I just received this part from Levittown Ford but it didn't come with any mounting hardware. Is this normal? If not, what do I need and can it be had at any local hardware store? Thanks.
I'll see if I have the part numbers for the hardware from when I installed it, I'll let you know
Ohhh, I see; I wasn't aware of that. Thanks.
That would be fantastic. Thanks a lot; Much appreciated.
Any luck finding the info? Thanks.
Methinks you're trying too hard/not doing it right. I had no trouble. Also, if they were stronger/metal, they'd be heavier and more expensive...which would be passed on to us. The reality is that those pins will never be touched on the vast majority of the cars sold.
Back in my car stereo days in the late 80's and early 90's, we used to call these "JESUS CLIPS". Because every time you took them off, you would pray to JESUS you didn't break them.
What is the right way other than pushing them in...? I about took a hammer because I was getting

Those clips are extremely easy to get in and out. You take a small screw driver and pop the center up which unlocks the the clip and they lift out with no effort. You leave the center up inset the clip then push down the center to lock it inplace.What is the right way other than pushing them in...? I about took a hammer because I was getting
The brace on a GT PP sits on top of the K-brace brace which goes over the same studs as the strut tower brace, there is no spacer. If you do not have the K-brace the strut brace will sit approximately 0.1" lower, not an issue.
No, but if you're going to go through the trouble to do it at all, get the k-brace too. Read Mishimoto's strut tower thread to show how effective that piece is. The additive effect of both is quite significant.
Get 'em both... $178 with free shipping on eBay, huge difference in steering accuracy, well worth it.
Wow, I now hate you. I thought I had the best price. You killed it. Nice buy! It does pay off to create a search and wait for the offer you want. It will come if you are patient.
