Looking to fit a rear strut brace to my MY99 Wagon.

Does anyone have one fitted that allows you to still use the load cover?

Cheers

 

Hey reef,

im after the same info for my car too....

I'll keep an eye on this ;-)

cheers

 

ive got a my93 with a rear strut brace ready to fit but have been told id have to loose the rear cover an mod the plastic panals around the struts

 

Cusco fits, even the three point brace...have a look in my project thread; can't post pics as I'm at w**k

 

Is this the Cusco that fitted under?

 

can't see any pics at wotk either...sorry will have to check later but as I said the Cusco version does fit and there are pics in my thread.

are you still selling that ARB?

 

I've got me confused with someone else, I'm not selling any ARB's.

Cheers

 

sorry Reef.

 

I am after some ARB's though

 

might have a 24mm rear for sale if I can get hold of a 22mm

 

I want a 22mm as well, think I've found one but I'm not going to tell you where

 

Thats not very friendly...*scurries off the search the classifieds*

 

Its here mate

I haven't got the cash right now, want a alloy rad and rear strut brace first

 

lol, mailed him earlier today

ARB will make more difference...not much milage in changing the rad either...I only changed mine 'cos the one I brought had slim line fans and was super cheap...no advantages over OE though

 

I have a whiteline item in my newage wagon, it has quick release locks for easy removal.
Bought it 3years ago so unable to put up any links.

Unless you're gonna fit a proper 40mm bar I wouldn't bother tbh

Much better to do the ARB first as Ian suggested

On my prefacelift wagon we have two rear load cover mounting holes so you can retain partial coverage Mine came with a mock shelf to fill the void with speakers mounted, look pretty tidy

 

I have a 99 wagon and fit a cheap ebay job under the cover no probs. It was like this one...

It stretched a bit to go over it , but no biggie. Will warn you this, You wont notice it doing jack. It is also very annoying if you have to use your ample rear space. I have had fish tanks,bikes furniture in the back. Each time it's an **** ache getting it off, with missus looking over shoulder giving me the "you ****" look. Up to you matey, they look bad *** if its all stripped out, which mine is now.

 

or three point braced Stu

 

Aye that's a given

 

Don't think I'll bother with a strut brace yet then.

Bugger wish I hadn't told Trails about the ARB

These are the quick release bolts on their own, very handy for a wagon user.

 

that's a cheap crappy one...below is the Cusco.



both for comparison...
