yes the greddy strut bar is bolted down to the shock towers using the 3 bolts on each side. But the bar going across the shock towers is mounted to the those mounting brackets by one bolt on each side. you take off one bolt and use the other bolt as a hinge lifting one side of the bar. i believe the trd unit is one entire unit and doesn't allow for this, so changin spark plugs does seam like a PIA.
