are there any strut braces that fit the front are rear top mounts??

http://www.dvs.net.au/360.html These guys if you're in Australia. Front ones go for around 110quid plus p+p. I'd imagine there would be somewhere in the UK that did them though....

may have an issue with that fitting over the f7 engine

It fits behind it, but if you have the rear lifting eye on it fouls it.

Really should take some pics seeing as I have both a DVS strut brace and a F7R here...

Nothing an angle grinder can't solve surely?

OEM man... think of the points you'd loose at a BKV!

pictures would be great

if it clears thats all i want, must make a small difference?

Hey

i wouldnt have thought a rear strut brace would hold any point? as its not coil overs, or struts whatever. its a leafer. i may be wrong but wouldnt have thought it would make the blind bit of difference!!! front on the other hand should be pretty good. I know some one on here has one!

Ben

the rears you have the top of the shocks poking through just thought a bar accross them would strengthen the chasis a little more

true, but im still not sure on the point to be honest. but just my opinion!

Ben

It doesn't matter that its a leafer, the point is you don't want the body flexing and reducing the pressure on the tyres any more than necessary, the body doesn't make a good suspension part as its not damped.

It doesn't really matter where you stop the body flexing, but people often just use the suspension mounts because they are already strong. The hatches are particularly weak in the rear you can see this with the doors opening and closing when you jack them up on one side.
