I had some UR Bracing on the rear which i have now removed. The Carbing brace was a little tricky to install. Lucky with my air ratchet it was made much easier. As the front bolts just hang in the hole.
I think it really needs some glue as you try to put the nut on it, it pushed the bolt inside the recess/hole.
Very tricky to install these. I used a screw driver to hold the thread, so that the air ratchet could catch the threads when putting the nut on
Old UR Racing vs the Carbing design.
UR Rear sway bar as well as rear ARB.
Have now been replaced by some decent JDM spec bracing.
Angle grinder to cut it off.
