Front Tower Cross Brace.

[ceejay]

Here's something that will compliment the rear cross brace - A front tower cross brace - Something we did during the four year ground up rebuild of the S2 elan. Does it make a difference? I cant say 100% that it does, but a tower cross certainly triangulates the front of the chassis to ensure minimum flex - Every bit counts as they say.

Photos below show cross brace during rebuild-restoration at chassis stage, then two views deep into the front of the engine bay, it was a squeeze but everything fitted in perfectly.

This project is not suitable if the front chassis cross member is being used as a vacuum tank.
