Ok, here's the update. I spoke to Eibach Tech support and they are sending me a new kit. it seems some of their early kits had problems ( as posted by people here as well) and the bolts were hallow, making them likely to snap off. He said intructions will be inclosed. I still think that the problem resulted in installing with the load off the car. If the body and chassis is in its driving state, the bar won't have any pressure associated with it. If you install with the weight off the car, (and if the bolts are not fitted at the exact spot) when the car is lowered, pressure from the weight of the car are forced on the bolts themselves. This is the only logical explaination why so many of us are having the same problems. Gary
