Using your K - Tuned Traction Bar is easy. First, make sure your car is a 88 - 91 Civic EF or 88 - 91 CRX with a B - Series engine swap. Remember, it won't work with the factory full - sized radiator. Start by bolting the traction bar onto the factory tow hook mounting locations.

When driving, the B - Series engine mount will provide extra support to stop the engine from rocking around, especially during hard launches. As for maintenance, check the bolts regularly to make sure they're not loose. If you notice any signs of wear on the powder coating, you can touch it up to prevent rust. Also, keep an eye on the radius arms for any signs of fatigue or damage. Since the product comes in high - quality packaging, if you need to store it for a long time, keep it in that packaging to protect it from dirt and scratches.
