Any fitting instructions yet?

 

Kit arrived 2-day..thankyou... ........Any joy with that fitting guide ??

 

I think Rich has them nearly done

 

Just waiting for the parts to turn up today, I will then finish the instructions this weekend.

 

newage bolts ect arrived today chris cheers

 

I got my nuts today

 

Yesterday I received 1 long bolt, 1 short bolt, 2 locking nuts, 4 thick washers, 2 medium washers and 2 thin washers, then this morning I received another long bolt and another long bolt, is this correct for a 03WRX? or have I been sent the washers by accident?

 

yes mate , my guy left out one of each bolts for newage

so we replaced them again yesterday

Chris

 

I received two bolts today - one long & one short but I would have thought that they would have been high tensile 10.9 or 12.3 strength bolts instead of normal 8.8 strength bolts.

Plus still not received the missing bolt set for my battery clamp.

 

Hi,

Your battery clamps bolts were sent with those bolts? please check the package again ,.

There in no need for them to be high tensile, they are only bolting spacers in place ,



see instructions rich has done so far

Thanks Rich

 

No there were definitely only 2 bolts in the small jiffy bag.

 

Link doesn't work for me

 

Try this http://www.southwalessubaru.co.uk/cdf/CDFALK.pdf scoobynet doesn't like long urls.

As soon as I get my spacers I'll add the final pics.

 

Two packages were sent this week, did you get them both .... if you didnt I am guessing the battery bolts are in the other parcel

 

Cheers again rich , I owe you one.




If you guys need more photos I have them from another member aswell

thanks

 

still haven't received mine do you know whether you sent them at the same time, inc the drop links? cheers

 

No problem.

I have plenty of pics here aswell, I just didn't want to overload the instructions with images. If anyone need to see anything from another angle then let me know.

 

Chris
When fitting to my classic is it pretty obvious what you need to do?
As the instructions are for the new age

To mess up the thread, can I ask if this Group Buy still stands? I have a MY02 WRX.

Ta in advance.

Phil

 

Mine have arrived today. Many thanks Chris

 

Got the bolts this morning Chris, I'll update the instructions this week.

Rich.

 

Hi Steve,

Trust your man got them ok , yep classics are straight swap over for oem part

 

I received the battery clamp bolts today, thanks.

But I now have another set of spacers/bolts/nuts which were in with the delivery today, are these duplicates or are they required as well?

 

sorry to butt in but any news on when ARB's will be happening?

cheers

 

I wouldn't worry about the extra spacers, just bring everything you've got with you

 

i phoned up and purchased on wed. approx 3pm
recieved via TNT on thur. approx 10am
fitted on fri. afternoon
would like to thank chris for the prompt delivery and overall quality of the product.
only snags i encountered whilst fitting that were not highlighted were
1. the drivers side would not line up correctly. no matter how we pushed and pulled, loosened surrounding bolts etc we were always about 2mm shy. main worry was shearing the bolt thread on hole, or worse still, the thread on the bolt insert hole. SOLUTION- we simply filed the guide holes on opposite sides approx 1mm, allowing a slight amount of movement to allow safe unrestricted tightening.
2. on re-attatching the bar to chassis, the first bolts with the block on would not go straight in due to a plastic guard being in the way. SOLUTION- cut it away!
my car is an 06 sti so anyone else that may encounter this it is solveable without worry. just a slight modification of a modification. lol. thanks again chris and all involved at CDF. very happy with product with a noticeable improvement. Lee.

 

I found the drivers side 2mm short also, but tonight managed to fit it without any modfication

I will update the instructions for everyone else.

 

brilliant!! just my luck, explain, added an extra 1.5 hrs fitting time for me in the long run, good job my mate is the patient understanding type

 

You're lucky with 1.5 hours. I have spent 2.5 hours fitting just the drivers side bracket, with the scoob off the road for over a week. It's all fitted now and after the alignment tomorrow I'll be motoring happy!!!
