    Strut bar fitment.

    So I've searched and came up with the bar is too long either jack the car up from the middle or use a come-along to "stretch" the car out a bit, neither of those solutions help me because my bar is too short. I have the IE bar and it's about 3/8" too short. Are there any tricks for getting the strut towers to flex inward a little bit or anything else short of drilling the holes on the bar out a bit?

    You need to get the correct size bar. IE makes two sizes; a short and a long one. You need the long one.

      just about everyone makes 2 different sizes because there appears to be two different chassis dimensions.

        Whom besides IE? Neither sparco or RD, which one might argue are the two most popular. I can't find anyone else who makes diferent size bars.
