Dumb Question Thread - No Flaming Allowed

Also I should clarify something, I don't actually have the brace installed and working yet. I have cut the studs though. I'm
actually curious if you guys had any fitment problems? I tried mocking it up on the car when the car is on quick jacks and the studs do not line up with the holes. I'm wondering if they will when the car is on the ground… 🤔

I don't have any photos of the spacers I received but basically exactly the same thing but thinner (same thickness as the hex).

Re fitment - mine was absolutely perfect. Did a check with the car in the air (without removing the nuts on the RSMs) and it seemed fine and then installed for real on the ground - dropped straight in. I have heard of others needing to apply some leverage to get fitment (rear strut bars in general, not Yurkan specifically) so maybe depends a bit on individual chassis and whether it's moved at all over time?

I think you’ll love it once you’re done - I couldn’t believe the amount of difference it made to my car.

Interesting indeed, I bought mine I think early 2023? Here’s a couple pictures:

Which brace do you have? I have a Yurkan Cages 6-point brace. Funny though the spacers he gave me are thicker than the hex washer on the OEM bolts. So I'm using the stock bolts and I cut myself a stud using an old stock bolt, and thread them in from the top. I wasn't comfortable running a thicker spacer because of the solid aluminum CMP mounts I'm running. Dunno how much impact a few mm would have but I figured better safe than sorry(?)

Interesting! I have the Yurkan 6 point as well and the spacers are the same thickness as the hex studs. When did you buy yours? Maybe he's changed the size of them? I bought mine April 2024.

I did the same thing, have yet to drive it, but used stock bolts from the rear to cut and add to topside front.
