    Strut Brace

    Does anyone have a pic/drawings of the mounting braket for the S2 strut brace. I have found someone to fabricate everything for me at a decent price?

    I got my friend to make one in stainless steel. I just gave him my old strut brace and he made one for me.

              why better than standard? noticable difference?

              Also, what is a catch tank? (and how is that related to the strut brace)

                  Hi Jonas,

                  Can you still get those stainless steel strut braces made ?

                      I have an adjustable strut brace on my car. Meaning, you twist it one way and it pulls tight on the towers and if you twist it the other way, it pushes on the strut towers. I can have these made, too.

                        Joe! You's the man again!....

                        Tell me more about the brace you got? I have the one that was made in Holland several years ago that adjusts in the middle. Guys on the AW Forum say it a piece of shvt. I'd like to put one on like the S2 but the battery case makes that difficult. I am like Azman in that I too have been researching what options I have.

                        Jonas! Is it possibble that the compressed end is strong enough to be extended over a little more to clear the battery case on a 20V car? Being SS I was hoping so. Removing then battery case is out of the question for me.

                          Panzer,
                          unfortunately the one that I have would only fit B4 cars (saloon/avant) and actual S2 coupes (unless you move the battery on a CQ). On an S2 coupe, the battery is under the rear seat, so a straight fit bar is possible. I don't have any solutions for your car unless you move the battery to the rear. :-( sorry, mate!
