yep, just take it off. it's to prevent the rear wheels to be installed on the front by accident.

That is cool, They are good at that stuff. When my friends and I were installing my CAI, my friends daughter age 6 helped us do the install. She helps him work on his car all the time.

Of course we only let her do safe stuff
