Longer studs for strut bar?
I am trying to install the racing beat strut bar and the strut top studs do not clear the bar mounts. The guy I bought the bar off of appeared to have longer studs on stock looking strut tops. I have KYB brand and just bought mevotechs and they are the same. Will I need to source longer studs to press in?

i had the same issue with mine and ended up selling my rb strut bar cause i didn't feel like changing out the studs or the tops (i knew i'd be doing a motor swap eventually or would have kept it). but i would say yes, you need longer studs.
