Buschur Mustache Bar installed!!!!

I gotta say thanks to Nick for the phone call letting me know they were back in stock

David for the bar and JaRRod getting it shipped out... you guys truly are the BEST

Install... well it wasnt to bad. My pointer to everyone else that buys this and installs it themselves. Bolt it to the diff cover before trying to bolt it to the rear frame itself... it will make life ALOT easier. I also made a few marks on the frame and underbody just to be sure everything was back were it needed to be so the alingement wasnt all out of wack. Once installed I put the car on the alingement rack and checked everything out and it was good to go. No adjustments were nessacary .

After install and driving home,(before IHUNTV8 called to tell me the tracks were closed )I didnt notice any harsh vibration in the interior due to the aluminum bushings, but the drivetrain itself felt alot more solid .

I highly recommend this peice to everyone, I mean DAMN you take 12lbs out of the car!. Plus its like it makes the car feel more connected to the ground!

Here it is installed....

Its a great mod.. not a bad install as you said bolt it to the diff 1st and kind of leave everything loose to work all the bolts in and then tighten..

Yeah thats what I did. It came with new hardware and I figured I would cut the stockers out and the bar would slide right out... boy was I ever wrong

The new supplied bolts and washers were for were it bolts to the diff housing.

I guess you live and learn

yeah I figured.. I was trying to remove mine a while back and noticed you need to drop the rear subframe to get the bolts out, wasn't sure if it was just me or what!
