Strut brace

Finally managed to buy a strut brace, cost me Â£49 inc p&P off of ebay!

ekkk that seems a tad expensive

mine only cost me Â£15 from ebay

actaully whilst im on this thread - to fit the front brace do you need to do anything fancy - or just stick the thing on ?

im sure i read that you are suppose to take the weight off the front wheels to fit it - but i could be wrong !!

Â£15!!! I may leave mine off so I can beat you with it at RS!!!

TBH I\'m not sure what the crack is about taking the weight off of the front wheels? As long as you torque it up when you attatch it I cant see a problem.

we can have a star wars style battle but rather than light sabers - front strut braces

LOL !

you will have to get a pic on here when you fit it

Take care matey

It does indeed. I\'m thinking about just making my own and having done with it!
