FTSB install - air condition line

hi,

anyone encounter a problem while installing a FTSB.

there is an A/C line on the passage side that is attached to the body via a clip.

what are my options....the line is not very flexible.

Are you talking about a fstb front strut tower bar? If you are than u must be putting the bar on backwards. On mine i have the C-shaped mounts that attach the bar to the strut tower. it looks like this

)=--------------=(

)( mounts
--- bar
= bracket

If yours is like that u will notice that the bracket that hols the bar itself in place is not in the center of the mount, make sure you have that bracket on the foward side of the strut tower otherwise you will hit the brake fluid container. Thats how mine is but yours might be different , and if so i wasted my time. lol.

If you ordered from Courtesy, they are sending the wrong ones out.
Shipping the 4th Gen ones in replacement of the 3rd Gen ones.
They don't fit and are accepting returns at no charge.
Going to be a month or so for the correct part.
