[quote="Tommy"]I like your ver 2.0. It's quite close to mine. I don't think you gain anything with those gussets (the green things) as the tube lenghts are so short. Also it would close your access to engine and make things more difficult. What I think would help much more is to triangulate the upper pipes to a bottom of a pillar like here. Think about the force upwards from strut when going over bump. http://www.bmw2002faq.com/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,50/page,download/id,1982/ I just noticed that it's difficult to see my construction from any of tens of the pictures I've posted. It is quite a lot work and difficult to access for welding to realize that kind of design. I think you'll have to put the upper pipes below inner fender like I did to be able to close the hood and make it look nice. Here you can see how the inner fender was opened to put the piece of pipe inside. http://www.bmw2002faq.com/components/com_forum/files/thumbs/t_pict0033_707.jpg[/quote]
