Fitting lower h brace to gc8 sti v3
hi guys
I asked my local mechanic (general mechanic) to fit a lower h brace to my sti v3. After trying to fit it he said that the front wishbone nuts were not long enough to get decent thread on the bolt and was therefore dangerous.
He advised I buy longer bolts for the front lower arms so the h brace can be fitted safely.
This suprised me but wanted to hear from you guys whether or not this can occur and if I can but extended bolts.
Thabk you

I'm pretty sure you can use existing bolts,there is a certain order to fit this brace and are a **** to do.
Can't for the life of me remember,sure there is a thread on here somewhere,maybe even a youtube?
