    Default rt142 irs rear strut brace

    Car - rt142 with irs

    motor - 22re

    use - daily slider

    problem - n/a

    occurs/started when - n/a

    personal situation - want to put a rear strut brace in my rt142 and looking for ideas/ experience i was thinking just between the tow shock towers and then onto the bottom of the boot where the tow bar picks up but im no engineer, some artwork is below of what im talking about and a blank one for anyone with better ideas
    thanks

    that's not going to help your car, there is no sideways flex there.

    Making an X shape just behind the rear seat is a different story though
