what does it take to install a strut tower brace?

[SVT3183]

i have a 95 cobra and it doesn't have a tower brace (as far as i know they weren't stock) but the holes for one are already drilled in. so it seems to me that dropping one in would take about 10 seconds but in the reviews here (for the steeda) both list a diffocult install as the negative. so what does it take to install one? why is it difficult? thanks.

takes about 10-15 min to install......even easier if you ahve an air ratchet

thats what i figured. then why are people saying it's a hard install?

Depends on what year Mustang they have. 94-95's have the holes pre-drilled. 96+ do not. Lining up, drilling and tapping holes is a PITA, especially for the beginner.

my steeda STB bolted right in and clears the cobra intake just fine. only takes a few mins to bolt it in

I have the steeda also. I have put it in and taken it out more times than I can count. Super easy, great fitment, and the steeda fits with most aftermarket upper intakes I hear.
