    I just installed a Lakewood strut tower brace on my GWE 392 Challenger so wanted to do a little How To write-up for anyone who has one.

    The only tools you need are a 13mm deep socket/ratchet. If your car has strut covers, you can use a flat head screwdriver to pop them off. Make sure you cover the end of the screwdriver with a towel so you don't scratch your paint.)

    Loosen and remove the three (3) 13mm nuts from both the driver and passenger side of the struts.

    Place the Lakewood strut tower brace in place. You can see in the photos below how I had it fit best (to clear the a/c cap).

    Replace the 3 nuts on each strut bolt and tighten. You're done!

    I believe it's only something like 20 ft-lbs on those top nuts? :)
