Bolt in is probably the easiest but if you know how to weld then weld away.

Just get it up there and adjust the nut. That bar pre-supposes the strut towers always move toward each other.. wrong.. they can move from side to side and away from each other.. That is why the st200 rear strut bar looks so over-designed, it realy was meant to be used in real-world rally use, not just cosmetic applications. - Rich LBC Performance Motorsports Group/AMSOIL '98 Cougar V6 ATX aka 'Candy Striper' Photos

If you go to BAT's catalog and look under suspension there is 2 rear strut bars. 1 for the cougar that is the rear strut brace cougar ST200. And there is another one that is called the Rear strut brace, plain and simple. NOw the ST200 rear strut brace, can that fit our cars?(SVT, Contours) or can it not? I know the second rear strut brace can, but the ST200 never said that it wouldnt fit SVT, Contours, etc. Can anyone give me some sort of explanation please? Contour is SOLD 97 GST eclipse is SOLD 2002 S2K...
