Astra F strutbar on Lanos?

[MaXiMiZoR]

Because a lot of parts from Astra F are the same as Lanos and it's difficult to find a front strutbar for Lanos, I was wondering if an Astra F strutbar would fit the Lanos...
Also, it's far more easy to find Opel parts.

Anyone with experience in this field who can answer this question?

shark racing has a lanos strut bar for $100 delivered from korea

I know Shark has one but I am looking for an adjustable bar. The Astra F strutbars in my country cost about half the Shark.

OMP make an adjustable strutbrace for the Lanos. I got one. It works a treat!

I did some research and it seems that the Astra F has a mounting with 2 holes where the Lanos has 3 holes...

By the way, I ordered the Shark Racing front strutbar (have read some good reviews about it).

Thanx for the info guys...

The lanos is an exact duplicate of the Astra MK2 which is the Kadette E, the Astra F is one generation afterwards.

Having said that, I am thinking the strut to strut mount of the F should be very close to the E.

Good luck with your purchase of the shark racing strut bar, hopefully it helps

the E and F both have only two bolts on the strut tops, the Lanos has 3, and even then there was a difference in where exactly these 3 were between 8v and 16v lanos'

for example, when i got my OMP strutbrace, because it was for the 1.6 16v, i had to re-drill one of the mounting holes as it was in the wrong place.
