Hi all.

I was wondering who wants to help me to do a rear lateral link install tutorial for the how-to section. I have the rear lateral links and I am planning to install them one of the weekends I am in the bay.

Anyone?

TIA.

 

pretty straight forward imo

 

It's only six bolts...

unless you count the endlinks, then it's eight.

 

I have front and rear though. So... 8. 10 including the endlinks.

 

No, still only 6 and 8 - unless the L is drastically different from the WRX and STi. The outboard bolt that goes through the hub holds in both lateral links.

 

Oh... you are right. Because I double counted those crazy long bolts.

 

bump

 

so did u ever make this useful tutorial to contribute to iclub modifcations section bump?

 

i need help bump

 

 

 

I did not... It is really straight forward. It's helpful to have an impact wrench, a torque wrench that goes to 150 ft-lbs, extensions, and PB Blaster. Pretty straight forward. Just requires a lot of leverage.

 

oh i see. so were u able to determine if the L's install was the same as the other chasis?

 

Yeah. It's more or less the same. I think the torque specs may be a little different. I had access to a repair manual and I think it is pretty close.

 

For the WRX, it's:

74ft/lbs for the inner bolts at rear crossmember.
100ft/lbs for the long outer bolt.
