Cool

Looks like the Rear STB would Limit the Size of Luggage you can carry in your Trunk.

Ahhhhh, jeez Sick, just when I was sort of resigned to waiting a while longer to do STBs, you go and repost Manaray's absolutely impeccable install and writeup!!!!! Now I want to go spend some money...........

follow up: anyone found out if they will work for GS300s? (I think in my memory somewhere I've seen it installed on GS300s with NO SPACERS NEEDED but not sure. Maybe someone who has an UGO front STB meet up with someone with a GS300 and try it out?)

Definitely a good thread! I used it three weeks ago during my F+R UGO CF STB install. I will post a pic soon w/SRT intake(w/red connectors/hoses/filter), optima red-top battery, and the compliment of red on the UGO STB.... My engine bay looks totally different now....
The only thing I will not be posting is the "hack job" I did on my rear trunk liner when installing the rear UGO......needless to say, its not quite as clean as Manarays rear install.......It still looks SICK though!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Thanks again Dex........
Next up, matching F+R Toms lower chassis braces, and TRD F+R sways......... would have done the TRD LCB, but they dont have a rear to match.....and you know its gotta' match..

Man I know this is an old post but holy crap! How tight are those bolts. Did you guys need to spray anything to loosen it up?

use a long pipe on the handle of your wrench...gives you more leverage...

Wow, I actually initally brought this from the dead and read it for my install.

Here is mine NEO. I used oil and WD-40 and the bolts came right off, no problems

Sorry to bump this if it bothers anyone, but it's a great thread. I just bought me a bar, and will need this guide prob next week.
