Re: SRD lower tie bar
They probably won't give out the dimensions, for fear that one could machine it themselves. Then they would be left responsible if something broke?<BR>Ex take a look at their crossmember, anyone with basic machining skills could make one. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

Re: SRD lower tie bar
White Fish.. why do you need to know this? It'll probably help us answer your question.. <P>I think on SRD's page (or somewhere else I have read) it says that if you already have an OEM lower tie bar (only standard on V6) then it doesn't do much more than look good.. so based on that.. I'd imagine that the actual dimensions would be pretty much exactly the same.. I guess that would mean it is not thicker.. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

Re: SRD lower tie bar
Isn't their rear lower tie bar a hollow square shape? Whereas the OEM one is literally like a 'bar'? Goto any automotive store and check out their rear lower tie bars (probably for a honda). They generally all look the same.<P>Either way, it looks better, and is probably stronger than the OEM (although you probably won't feel the difference, but theoretically...).

Re: SRD lower tie bar
I have the SRD tie bar..... it is machined from one piece of aluminium. Where as the stock tie bar is a hollow tube with the ends flattened for the crew holes.<BR>When I installed mine, I didn't notice a change in performance at all.<BR>All of the 4cyl guys I have talked to said that they noticed an imporvement over the stock setup of no tie bar.<P>hope the helps.<BR>Cheers,
