I just (this morning) installed a bunch of stuff on the car that I recnetly ordered, but the Monte Carlo bar doesent seem to fit It sits about 1 1/2' high,and no amount of cajoling etc. was able to fit it. I even tried unloading the front wheels by jacking it up. Could this be due to the towers leaning inboard due to wear or is the part just a POS? The bolts on the export brace on one side were missing too, (used the MC bolts to correct that).
I got it from NPD, and everything else was ok. .

If it is the shock towers flexing inboard, what can I do?

Thanks,
J
