i didnt know there were spots to mount a lower tie bar (front or rear). if you cant find any places it would bolt up, then drill new holes into the chasis LOL.

wow maybe you should do some research before you buy stuff, there is no place for it to just bolt up without drilling holes.

The tC comes with a lower tie bar from the factory, its called the front cross-member

. Just keep that lower bar in the glove box to use as a club/self defense weapon...

I've seen them on ebay list one for the rear suspension but it goes on the front side of the rear unnecessary!!!

lots of trolls on this forum...

only reason im even considered it is because of the angle i approach my drive way. im thinking its because its cold or something but my chassis flex and sqeeks like a ****..
the front strut bar help a lot more then i expected. but need a upper rear for the back which is the worst.

just a side thing have u guys seen pics of the tempered glass sunroof exploding? wasnt sure if it was was temperature outside or his car being lowered too much and going up a drive way at a angle.

i dont think thats a concern since there hasnt been any recalls or numerous incidents.
