I had a customer that brought in his car because he couldn't put the skid plate back on after he removed the diagonal cross braces.
He had changed the tranny oil with the car on ramps (suspension loaded).
I had to raise it off the ground on stands and practically loosen everything again before the skid plate would fall into place.
If he would have installed a TechnoBrace, things wouldn't have shifted.
Happy Boxstering,
