i will be installing one soon in my car, what i need to know if i need to have washers just under the chassis (the part you cant see, under the car). i was thinking if this would decrease the chances of the nuts coming loose over time? hope the first part makes sense.

i didn't use washers when i put mine on...after about 2 weeks, i checked the bolts/nuts again, still going very strong...just make sure u use bolts with larger heads if u're not really certain...

maybe get a set of high tensile bolts & nuts off bunnings...i used those for my strut brace, and some other places, never had any problems...

hope that helps;)
