Title: Rear engine brace needed with solid mounts ? Post by: Rocket Ron on June 02, 2014, 21:58:23 pm Hi
Is there any need to run a rear engine brace with solid gearbox mounts front and mid Frame horns are tied into the cage What's your thoughts ? Ps don't have much to hang it off anyway as it's cut way quite a bit in the rear Title: Re: Rear engine brace needed with solid mounts ?

But if you have no inner wings not sure what you can do anyway Lee Title: Re: Rear engine brace needed with solid mounts ? Post by: Rocket Ron on June 02, 2014, 22:24:40 pm I'm thinking the light weight of the car makes a difference lee
Must be 80-100 kg lighter than your car wouldn't you say ? Title: Re: Rear engine brace needed with solid mounts ? Post by: leec on June 02, 2014, 22:42:48 pm You could be right with the weight.
Just give it a go.... Lee Title: Re: Rear engine brace needed with solid mounts ? Post by: Rocket Ron on June 02, 2014, 22:45:28 pm Just didn't want to end up with a two piece gearbox
