Evening All,
Were there differences between the front suspension turrets between different models / years?
I bought a front strut brace from a forum member who had it fitted to their 323 however when I try to fit it to my 1983 316 it does not fit. Were there differences?
The strut brace end pieces have a PCD too small for my turrets (I have got Tein adjustables but they still go through the original holes in the body). One of the end pieces also has a vertical section for mounting a 4th bolt through which my turrets don't have....
My strut towers:
The strut brace from the 323:
Note the other end piece did not have the vertical section.
If anyone can shed any light on this I am very interested as I would like a strut brace for my E21.
Thanks,
Mark

Re: Front suspension Turret / Strut Brace question
Could this be a rear strut brace?
