this thing looks so awesome!! can feel it as well way better than my home made one! love the look. cant even tell i moded it well on one side you can had a little trouble with welder, but still looks nice!

Thinking of getting another one to make it for the rear struts as well. so i don't lose the rear seat. should be easier than the front because i won't have to shorten the height just slot the holes. be just as good as the bar where the seat was. well hopefully i will try it will but one and see what i have to do, but first i am going to measure the front one and see if it will reach the rear struts might not, but i will check it out first and let you guys know how it all goes.

i had forgot that the rears do not have the bolts like the front(dumb me). well to do the rear if i got a bar long enough if i used a bracket that went under the nut on the strut do you guys thing that would be strong enough? i don't think it will be, but what if i did that as well as made it go down to the body as well and drilled to holes and bolted it there as well would that work out ok? i'm thinking it would work allot better. any thoughts guys? anyone do a rear strut bar?

[hofficergrover]

or if i had a set up like this for the rear?

i was just meaning the bracket not sure if it is long enough to fit.

[hofficergrover]

this it the one set up i was saying that would only be on the strut not on the body.

will have it go on the strut bolt that comes up through the body and the new pieces wil come off from the side and go down to the body and holes will be drilled and bolts will be added to make it mount to the body. will start this when i get it next week.:p
