adjustable strut brace fitting

[VL Berlina 5speed]

how do you exactly set up a adjustable strut brace to fit it?
ie, where about do you start on the adjustments?
start with it fully adjusted in and work both end out till its even and fit the strut towers?

also read somewhere the car should be jacked up, did i read wrong or should i raise the front?

Sounds about right that you should fit it with the front jacked up. That would let the wheels and suspension come to rest, and relax the strut tops. Then when you bolt it up and put her back down, the strut brace is always fighting to push the strut tops back, as opposed to having it static in the "road poise" and the strut brace only just starting to work when load is applied.

Seems to make sense

cheers morton

got it on and tightened up all the adjustments to how i want,

bassically it was set almost even when the weight is off the struts, just measured the thread to make sure it deff was even

now im just working on the struts bolts as the orignals are too ugly and dirty for my likeing
