Of course, we will have installation instructions.

Likely no video though. We have enough going on over here...lol

TQ is 164ftlbs.

Yo Kelly, does this interfere with the oem PP splash shield? I haven't been under to look yet. Too much work :(

 

[BMR Tech]

According to the pics I posted, nope!

 

[dubster99]

Sweet, I'll definitely be taking one in black. Then you'll know if it clears SP/SW!

 

[Robby]

164! That's more than the wheels. Are we talking about the same thing? I'm referring to torque specs on the nuts and bolts that we have have to install. I'm sure they will be in the instructions though. Product looks good. I was going to go with Steeda but, this might be better. Unfortunately, the product is not on the website yet. Red and black, right?

Suspension/chassis bolts are often that high of torque spec. 125+

 

[Robby]

Really? Steeda bolts are are 55-60 ftlbs.

 

[dubster99]

Yes really. They're under extremely high loads and need to keep things together. Even the rear vertical links have a bolt that's 125+.

 

[BMR Tech]

Its easy.

10mm bolts are usually mid 40s
12mm is usually 80-85
14mm is usually 129
16mm is usually 160-170
18mm is usually 325-250!

The front Steeda bolts are in a completely different place than the BMR brace will be.

I'm in for a Red one! Also curious how much the weight is

Yeah, it looks like this BMR brace actually connects to the front suspension as opposed to Steeda's which connect to the chassis only. Should tie in real well with a Strut-Tower Brace. Everything will be locked down.

Ok, I'm in. Just waiting for the car to get here though. It's still somewhere between Bremerhaven and Munich. I'm doing this mainly for son, who will also be driving the car. He lost it before on a highway exit. Don't want that to happen again.
