If you read this robyn, the 3.4 engine actually has a different strut brace. It isn't perfectly straight because of your alternator position. If you look at morad or buying the STB, make sure it's not a perfectly straight bar.

here's an example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Monte...s#ht_948wt_750

Sorry Robyn I forgot you had a 3.4 car. My bad. If you can find one to fit your car they are very easy to install. Like 10 mins max. The zzp wont fit the 3.4.
