I have posted another thread I would like for you all to see, it is Photos from two Ferrari F1 engine rebuilds I was involved in and also some fairly rare closeup Photos of several of Schumachers F1 cars

please take a look and post questions and commentshttp://www.clubwrx.net/forums/showth...hp?t=134338585

Two weeks since the subaru project was finished, everything with the car is great, there are absolutely no noises comming from the rear struts. I am a glad it worked as the inverted strut insert really was quite worn, the subaru does have nearly 50,000 miles on it now.

looking back at the pictures I am really glad I took the time to do the project, the only downside is not wanting to use it as much now that I have it all cleaned up.

The Ac lines did not take much to move at all, I don't think you will find the install difficult. I will take a close up of the bracket I had to move as well to install it and then post it for you



Here are the closeup pictures for you, I had to move the security horn bracket on the passengers side of the strut tower as you can see in the picture and I also had to move the clamp down on the drivers side to clear the strut brace. Just be careful with bending the AC lines not to kink the line at the bends, it needed very little adjustment to fit, it is soft so ease into it and you will be fine!
