YKE 20T Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 hi just wondering if anyone knows where or whom i can buy a front strut brace for a ke20. i'm rebuilding the front end with new springs, shocks, nolathane bushes, ball joints, tie rod ends, adjustable strut tops and a strut brace would be a nice addition. i have searched the net and couldnt seem to find anything so any info would be appreciated cheers.

LINDSAY Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) Ok dudes heres the story , for a quantity of 5 for $150 AUS dollars delivred into Australia . now i don't mind organising it but i will not order anything until all are paid for and then i'll order them in , shouldn't be more than a couple of weeks ? what are everybody thoughts on this ? sound good ? let me know Lindzz " Yes, we could do this. We'd need the specs required though as we never go the KE series corolla's. Just the bolt pattern on the strut top, and the length across from the the two closest bolts." this is what he wrote to me , so if intrested parties can do the measurement of the length between the strut towers , just to make sure they are the same , should be but i like to check everything twice Edited October 10, 2007 by LINDSAY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13BT_KE20 Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 yeah sounds good, start organising it, unfortunately i don't have access to my car atm so can't take a measure but I'm sure 2 other people can :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfunkt Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) yeah, i should be able to get you the measurments tonite. also, would be good to know exactly who is after one, as there is only 4 people in the thread interested.

LINDSAY Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) ok well we got : LINDSAY DFUNKT 13BT-KE20 YKE-20T and i'm pretty sure i can off load the other , so thats it then actually i could probably offload a few more but any more would probably attract a tax somewhere also i noticed we are all in different states so there will be another lot of freight to get them from me to you guys , probably be around $20-30 more cause they are kinda large , everybody still intrested ?

robj Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Hi guys. I got a custom one made for mine, triangulated back to the reinforced firewall. FYI, KE20/25 come in two (2) different PCD for the top of the strut towers. Might want to check which one (ones) you guys have got before ordering and sending over dimensions.
