Hallo,
I just installed a fast fab truss bar, and I searched on the forum how to set it up but didn't get a clear answer.
I would like to know if you have to tie the shock towers together or push them outside with some preload.
Same question for the frame horns, do I have to apply some pre load so I pull the horns upwards .
Or do I have to instal it with no pre load at all???

Hope someone has some experience with this

Kind regards

Davy

It makes no difference what you do.

For a CSP truss I agree with Bruce, but for the ff vesion I feel tightening removes the intital bending of the top tube. After all it's not a truss construction.
