I assume the rear bolts, #17 (two required) are simply longer bolts that replace the existing OEM bolts. When the OEM bolt at the rear mounting point is removed, does the suspension drop down or is thare any other concern in this regard? Thanks Paul in Scottsdale Arizona ( the Strong-Strut guy)

2 bolts #15 and 2 bolts #17 also. The suspension would not drop down and just simple plug and play only.

Did you order the pull bars?

Curious if those part numbers are what I need to order?

Does anyone have the part numbers for the bolts? #15 and #17?

Thanks!

#17 Screw ECSTuning # 57583 Mfg#: 33322283088 $16.40 ea.
#15 Hex Bolt ECSTuning # 14703 Mfg#: 07119905394(Ended) Mfg#: 07119905394 $0.99 ea.
Pull Rod
Left ECSTuning # 127043 Mfg#: 51618040051 $81.82
Right ECSTuning # 127044 Mfg#: 51618040052 $81.82
I ordered #16 Hex Bolt With Washer - Pack Of 10 M8x35-U1 ECSTuning #: 2538306 Mfg#: 07119905533KT $7.00 Pack of 10.
I'm sure these are longer than the four stock Hex bolt with washer M8X18-U1-8.8 Mfg# 07119905529 on the Connecting support.
