SOLD Butt Strut and Body Brace

[Antm72]

Brought these from @Grumpy a while back have had them cleaned and powder coated and they have been on my car a while.

Selling as my car is just too low to add less ground clearance too, its lowered on Apex springs probably the lowest springs bar coilovers so sits low.

Its a shame as the difference in tightness is pronounced but i like the stance of my car and not sure i would be happy with it raised up as it will create other issues.

As in the picture the butt strut bolts the submounts together and the body brace runs to the front and ties in with the engine cross brace.

Looking at £240 Pm if interested.

How low is your car dropped mate?

 

[Antm72]

Its on Apex which are rated as 40 below but in reality its lower than that i would say closer to 70!! It has 3" clearance at that it looks like this with out me in it !!

As said it gives me about 3" on that height.
It is fine on any normal road no issues ive had it over the rubber sleeping policeman but the concreate squares are a challenge!

I'm only 30mm down and bottom out on a regular basis, generally when I am giving it some on country roads, it happened in the peaks at the weekend on at least 4 occasions,

I must be lucky then as ive never really caught it anywhere not sure how.
The only catching its done was to the front arch liners and that it.
