[Guest Anonymous]

I saw a picture on a website earlier that showed a rear tie bar with an intergrated battery tray anyone know if this is available still or a website? I think it said Top End performance.

TEP's quality is questionable and their customer service is nonexistent. The '02 FAQ will be selling the rear tie bar/ battery tray soon, and profits help keep this place running. Talk to stevek about the details!! (steve@bmw2002faq.com)

fine for locating battery. looks Koool.

Gentlemen, fire up your strain gauges!

How about we string fine wire (between the shock tower tops) and insulate each end

then, measure the change in resistance while driving with spirit?

that goes around the rear shock tower. It would be interesting to see what the results look like. A standard resistance measurement (two wire, not four wire) would be too crude to detect the changes you're likely to see.

Cheers!

but our empire says, "so what?"

If you're worried about shell failure, look for rust. The suspension is carried by the rear subframe, and the shell could be a taco as long as it held that subframe in place.

The same is not quite true for the front. But almost...

Attach one block to each side and thread about 12-16 feet of wire (thickness, kind?) anchored one end to body other end to a spring. crimp lead

lead attachment and run it though a fluke 77. should regester something. don't know what though.

never mind.
