Re: Strut tower brace?

there has been a few, with there how to's on this blog.
look in fabrication, I would start with some 1" DOM, have some 45* Bent and have some fun!
I will have to build my own do to engine mods.

Re: Strut tower brace?

I just got a stick welder (for free!) so I guess now is the perfect time to start building STB´s, SFC´s, wonderbar and some other small items.

Might also have a look at a tubular panhard bar and lower control arms.
I´ll need some time t take measurements, then have a look at where I can get the materials form.
