Front strut bar installation

i find this to be rather funny. The difference between "pivot points and non "pivot points" is merely whether its welded on or not. Any pivot point strut bar uses bolts to lock the pieces in place effectively making it one solid piece. now a non pivoting bar or just straight up one piece unit is literally solid so theres nothing to worry about there. in all actualities the pivoting strut bars are much more durable. I live in the frosty ass cold northwest and metal has a tendency to shrink and expend here. I have had both types of strut bars on my car and found that the "pivot bars have been the better of the two. there is no noticable difference in handling between the two and quite frankly for 150-200 dollars less id rather have the "pivot"

Its going to take more than weather changes to affect the structure of a non-pivot point (or a pivot point) bar. Those weather changes are not going to affect the durability. Yes, I know it gets cold there. But its not enough to affect the structural integrity of the bar.
