Strut Brace Fitting

[JAM]

Bought a strut brace, and lad reckons no fittings/fixings come with it.

Should i get some sort of fixings?

Also how easy is it to fit? 5mins?

just need to unbolt the top mounts on the suspension struts, put the brace on then put then bolts back on.

Meant to see good results with a top and bottom brace fitted.. Top brace on its only is really just for styling.

but im guessing with the lower brace your cant be lowered alot. whats a sensible amount you can go over with speed bumps?

25mm id say is a sensible amount.. 35mm is probs the limit, If your getting a lower one for handling purposes then i doubt your going to be any lower then 35mm anyway.

Would a top strut brace make a difference on a standard non lowered 1.1?

[Roper]

not really mate

i want a lower one, but would smash it on everything, as i'm down 50mm soon to be 60mm

Bottom brace?
