Hello! I would like to open a thread about the brackets needed to mount the CR rear strut tower brace in an ap1/2.

Any of the following would be help full to those of us still trying to fab something up:

1. Picture of the brace installed
2. picture of the brackets before installation
3. Schematics to reproduce already fabbed brackets
4. General explaination of installation process

Thank you all in advance for your input!

 

The brackets needed to be welded to the stock roll bars. I contemplated this before and decided my options were:

A. Fabricate custom brackets and weld them to the roll hoops

B. Buy CR roll hoops

C. Fabricate my own rear brace


I've decided to go with option C simply because of the cost and work associated with the other two options.

 

I was advised of something along these lines by a local shop - after asking him how much it would be for them to fab up brackets, he said for the amount of time it takes to fab brackets, he could fab me the whole rear brace out of stronger stuff than the one I have...
