I read all the post on installing the bar but they were not all that clear, what tools do i need to do the install and do i need a troque wrench ? how many lb/ft do i need to torque the nuts back to?

 

i thinks its like a 12 and 14 mm- open end and sockets....took me about 20 min to do mine using ramps- and i had a lift at my disposal.....really easy install......i did not use a torque wrench......

 

Hmmm, I think Joerockt had a thread with pictures and everything.

 

I installed mine about 1hr time, be sure to take off the rear black plastic cover...it makes the install a lot easer.

As for the nut torque, Helm's manual says 28lb/ft (38Nm for you metric users) for the end link and 16ft/lb (22Nm) for the brackets (I copied this from another thread )
