Re: Lower Strut Brace - Connor - 31-01-2012

Re: Lower Strut Brace - spawn - 31-01-2012
Am i right in thinking that you cant fit these if your car is super low?
Re: Lower Strut Brace - Connor - 31-01-2012
Taking the bolt out wont matter too much, just try and make sure the wishbone doesnt move too much. And you can fit them, just dont go over any speedbumps
Re: Lower Strut Brace - Eeyore - 31-01-2012
I fitted mine and drove 5 meters and bent it on a speed bump. :-( its fine if you take it slowly ;-)

Re: Lower Strut Brace - Rippthrough - 31-01-2012
Yeah, the twin-tube ones have more ground clearance, the early ones were lighter for the same stiffness, but a fair chunk lower.
Lower Strut Brace - Jonny b - 31-01-2012
Have to say anyone thinking of getting a ripp brace DO IT!!!! That and the omp top one has made such a difference don't bother with the E tech top brace as its made of cheese ha ha, powering hard out of the lower gear corners having the bottom one has virtually eliminated the inside wheel lighting up, feels so much more sure footed, big up to ripp for it from me
RE: Lower Strut Brace - puglove - 24-07-2012
Is rip still doing these? I got an omp one. I bejt and twisted to get it to fit and it just hit every thing
RE: Lower Strut Brace - Rippthrough - 24-07-2012
Yep, but only the bare metal ones at the minute as the powdercoaters are waiting on a new oven. Trust it to die halfway through my stuff!
RE: Lower Strut Brace - Just Sean - 24-07-2012
How many have u got rip? And how muchdo you sell them for?
Is their anything like this to strengthen the rear up aswell?V
RE: Lower Strut Brace - Rippthrough - 24-07-2012
Just sold the ones I had ready, but I can weld a couple more up tommorow night possibly. £50 for a bare metal one.
Don't do anything for the rear yet (there's a whacking great steel beam underneath already!)
RE: Lower Strut Brace - Grant - 26-07-2012
^^^ errr? Lol
Ripp, have you looked at manufacturing and selling hybrid arbs? I reckon there would be a fair market for them if you could knock them out at a competitive price. Maybe bigger tbs too? 40mm? Lol!
RE: Lower Strut Brace - Rippthrough - 26-07-2012
No, I've got a full replacement rear beam in the works instead.

Ooh ooh what's the beam specs bud
RE: Lower Strut Brace - Rippthrough - 26-07-2012
It's a metal tube and you can put a wheel on either end.
