Default PT-tuning's new srut tower brace

I got the e-notice about the new strut brace and checked it out on line - looks cool - but I question the clearance on the selonoid side - I still want to put in the adjustible Konis. From what I understand there's a knob on top of the strut to adjust ride quality. Can someone who's installed the Konis already tell me - Is there enough room for both?
thanks

I just ordered the BTG Strut Bar myself , I will let you know how it works out when I get it. Sure will look nice along with the polished intake.

I ordered the strut bar and the axle back exhaust today. They gave me FREE shipping and 10% off for being a PTCC member. What a great deal and I can't wait to install the parts.

I ordered the strut bar fot the GT also. Hooray!!! Been waiting awhile for the GT strut bar. Also ordered the Eibach Sway bar package (front & rear & hardware). Says all of the hardware is included, the pic shows all of the parts (including end links) even though that is not a picture of a PT rear sway bar. (disclaimer on page states that pics may not be of actual parts for specific vehicle). When recieved I'll post as to weather I will be ordsering parts from Jodys Dealer parts list. (ordered Eibach Sway Bar Kit from Truckperformance.com). My Mod budget has been excedded for the near future, THE BOSS (my wife Christine) has brought this to my attention!!! (Damn!) [}]

Alan, I also got my Eibach Sway bar Kit from truckperformance.com last month but I still had to order all of the rear mounting hardware fom the dealer (you won't need the rear bushings). The endlinks that came with the kit were only for the front. Anyway, I love the way my car handles now although I don't know how much of it is due to the sway bars since I installed my springs and strut tower bar at the same time.

Aloha,
Mark

Divots, do you have the part #s that need to be ordered from DC for the rear bar. If you do, could post them so that I can get them on order before I get the sway bars it would be very helpful. Or even E-Mail them to me. Thanks [:I]

Thanks Jody (you beat me to it)!!

Gearhead, you won't need items 1 & 2 on the list, but you may want to order 2 more of the nuts (item #9). You'll need them to bolt the bar to the axel.

Aloha,
Mark
