Hey Guys! I got tired of looking for a parts car near here for a mustache bar and the two rear suspension support thingys and decided to make some. I bought an r200 bar but now I need the support things. I was wondering if anyone would measure one that they have. I need length, width, distance from the top to the hole, and hole diameter. I am not sure of the actual name of the two bars but they are right next to the mustache bar and attach the rear of the control arm. I was gonna make them out of steel bar and weld in some flat steel to make the hole and mount them on the top. I also have access to lots of 1/16 1x1 aluminum. If I welded 3 or 4 pieces of aluminum together to make the bars do you think they would be strong enough? I was leaning towards steel but feel like aluminum might even be stronger. Then I was just gonna tie them together with one or two 1x1. It says that it is called the "Link Mounting Brace" in this picture. #5. http://www.oldriceautos.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Datsun-280Z-Rear-End-Assembly.png Thanks Guys! btw I will be TIG welding everything and I have access to a mill at my high school so I can make it accurate.
