Where to buy a Lanos front strut brace?

Post by TheGreatAndPowerfulOz »

Does anyone know any reliable places to buy a Lanos front strut brace?
I'm not interested in anywhere that doesn't reply to email for months after accepting payment and then just hoping that maybe the part will be shipped.


Thanks!

I'm willing to pay what what ever I don't feel like is a rip off, as long as it is a good one that is well made and looks nice.

I'll check out shark racing ... thanks :)

If they don't carry a rear, I'll just have to make my own. :)

I'm heading to a metal scrap and raw stock supply on Monday with my dad so I can check out what they have for some other project ideas I have.

I bought mine from strutbracer.co.uk. They're located in the UK and they supply OMP adjustable strutbraces. They answered my emails very quickly and delivery was fast too (by courier), however it took them sometime to have it available. You may want to ask them if they have it in stock

Strutbracer also carries a rear strut brace...get one from the Vauxhall Astra Mk2. And the lower one too, from the same car (front).

I really like the rear and lower front bars. Thanks for telling me about them!



Now I just need to decide which front top bar to get. :)

I will install my new KYB shocks, Apex springs (thanks Tom!) and all 3 strut bars once I have all the parts.
