    Has anyone had experience installing the 1" shortened ZZP Dogbones? Can you unbolt both dogbones simultaneously and flip them out or is there another process? I haven't seen much for instructions on their website.

    2001 GP GT, 3.8L V6 stock suspension height.

    Also, posted in Wanted but I'm in need of a passenger side torque strut mount bracket on the engine side. The interior aluminum fork has cracked. It's still held on by the outer but I look on and worry. Hoping someone here has one.

    Yes you can unbolt both at once. Then use a prybar to pull the engine forward to attach the other ones.

    also Year and engine size would help

    2001 Grand Prix GT 3800. Stock ride height, too. I saw some people say that pulling the engine forward on a non-lowered car is a bad idea. Is this true? It's got about 212,000 miles on it and I'm getting a lot of play in the CV Axles. I was hoping that this might clear some of the noise up and give me some extra mileage in the axles.
