well i have a decent socket set. grinder is not likely. i really am not bothered on the appearence of it.

What do you mean by breaker bar?

It's a bar w/o the rachet making portion. I has the end for the socket and gives enough leverage to remove a nut.

oooohhh. ok, yeh im pretty sure i got one of those., if not i know someone who does.

so how long did it actually take you to install it.
i have pretty bad luck when doing anything, is there much chance of me breaking anything?

(i somehow managed to screw up my touch-up painting this weekend, instead of 2 big scratches on my car, i now have 2 dark silver spots)

Its real easy. Only have to take four nuts off (2 strut tower, 2 on engine). It comes with good intructions too, which is always a plus. If you can get a breaker bar, either the one in the pic, or a home made one, it will make it extremely easy to losen and tighten the nuts. Once it's on, Just dont over tighten it and blow out your bushings on the connecting arm (or whatever they called it). Tighten it until you see the bushings compress some and your done. The grinder may be necessary for it to even fit on the strut tower so you may want to look into it, someone who has one, borrow, whatever. A Dremel with a grinding stone may be all you need, so you might want to keep that in mind. You will be happy with the end result though. Especialy as you continue to mod, and it will help your stock mounts last. I felt a very noticeable difference, especialy going from just the stock mounts and my mods to now having it stay put when I hit the gas.
