Hi,
again im sorry this isnt very vx related but the principles the same lol!
i have managed to obtain a GP version R rear anti roll bar drop links bushes etc as well as whiteline front droplinks and bushes, as an upgrade for the fto. very affordable they were too!
having them fitted as soon as my mate can squeeze me in down the workshop.
this has started me thinking as tuning parts for jap cars are easily to come by for inspiration.
scott hopefully you can help me out a bit here, we made a bit of a team strut brace for the old green beast.
now it all seems quite simple for the fto in that i will only need to make a ring with a three hole pcd for both front struts, (no problem) but the backs will need more looking at (it seems to be some sort of 'neck ' clamp affair from the pics ive seen plus a bought one just wont do as i need to probably bend around my lpg tank and gusset weld it for strength)
can anyone or scott explain how to make the brace (the main bar part) does it need to be a tight fit or just the right length across the struts or does it need to be adjustable? all of which i can easily design and make.
just a little help with the principles will be most appreciated.
