Hello all  Big smiles because me Strut Brace arrived today Now, how do you fit them? is it a simple case of unscrewing the Bolts at the top of the strut, attaching the afformentioned strut brace then Screwing the bolts back? Or would I need to raise the car off the ground first so the car doesn't fall over when I uncrew the bolts? Ta

| ^^^Joker  | Re: How to fit a Strut Brace? The car won't fall over, as the car's weight will keep the tension on the springs anyway... Just make sure there's nothing in the way of fitting it, on the Punto there is the brake fluid reservoir and on the higher models (i presume) there is the power steering fluid reservoir. Good luck mate... is your car still working after the ACE meet?

Are you talking about a mk1 or mk2 punto? The Mk2's don't have power steering fluid...
