So 1st sunny day this year I think. So gave the lude a good clean.
Before

3.5hrs Later

Then I decided to fit my Spoon Sports Braces after I realised that the rear is compatible with 4WS

Rear fitted
Image

Then I went to swap my front Tanabe Sustec Brace for my Spoon Sports one.
But on the left strut the aircon pipe was fouling and wasn't moving :(

So Next job on the list: Remove Aircon :lol:

did you try dropping the strut down, fitting the mount, then placing the strut back up through the chassis and mounts?

No :lol:

It was only a last minute thing when I spotted the braces in the garage
Aircon doesn't work anyway. I want to get one of those Innovitive Alternator relocation brackets anyway 8-)
