Mine were a little bit of a pain. I put them on my ek with AC and had to massage the lines for them to fit properly. I also had to massage my radiator lower mount so the front bar would fit. Concerning the noise mine is a touch noisy because you now have no free play in the front to absorb bumps of the road. Wheel hop is gone and my 60 footers love me for it.

Will bars like this help on a strut car? No wheel hop now or anything but always
looking for more traction.

I am running the Z10's on my 95 Coupe. They are noisy and you feel every bump in the road. On the plus side, no wheel hop and intallation was easy.

I am using DTR Traction Bar [http://www.dtrfab.com] (Danny Tran Race)

Very easy install, no more wheel hop, helps traction, makes no difference driving
on the street, full chromoly, lightweight 11lbs, and also good price.

Contact FTR11secALLMOTOR, tell Danny that Frank send you.
