Some updates on the install of my track brace.
You can remove the welded on nuts. It was not easy, but it could have been with proper tools. We used a dremel with a small bit on it to cut away the welds and the a hardened cutting wheel to clear away the front edge of the nut. Some wacks with a chisel and the nut came loose. Rinse, repeat. Took maybe 30 minutes of work to remove the 2 nuts.
By the way, remove the shield around the engine mount first.
We have cut away the heat shield and taken measurements of the existing trailing arms. Now we only have to install the new end joints and we are done, except the alignment.
One somewhat unclear point... in the document it states twice in bold print: "only at mid-laden ride height of 130mm." What do you think that means?
