Found a pic of a rear strut brace for a legnum, never seen this one before.

Gly has his "B" pillar brace.

Then there is the lower arm one (At the front under the car), a bit like Paul's

I have the K shape front brace, but it isn't fitted to my car yet. I'm keen on a rear upper brace, I can feel the car flexing a bit around corners and hopefully that will fix it.

TBH I can't see the B-pillar brace helping that much, the floor is already there providing stiffness!

Guys with the lower ones, how is ground clearance under the car with them on? Do they stick out much?
Pics with them installed would be nice ;)

Where can you get the rear brace in the boot from and about how much are they?

I'm guessing you can't fit the rear strut brace one to galants?

Ive been interested in those lower arm bar's.

Having a look at the RALLIART thread you posted before it had this link to a site with part numbers for Ralliart gear.

Looking at this, the part numbers seem to be RAEC5401G1 and RAEC5402G1. But it would be worth double checking. Have any idea how much these would cost going through a local Mitsubishi Parts dealer?

Over at RHDJapan they have a couple of Cusco ones for sale.

I find the price of these to be pretty reasonable as well, ~$120 express shipped for the top one and ~$250 express shipped for the bottom one.

The ONLY doubt I have with these is (and the ralliart ones) is if they fit with aftermarket dump pipes ??

both go on together the H brace sits closest to the front and the straight bar sits behind it..

paul for the galants a rear strut brace should fit you just need specific galant ones im guessing.

I think you'd be better off talking to our man Dan in Japan ;) Buying parts through Mitsubishi Parts in Australia is stupidly expensive...

I don't think mitsi can get these part numbers anymore, no longer available is what I was told (Penrith Mitsi), but who knows.

Great pic Trev, looks like thety all sit a bit low with those scrapes, looks good though.

I'll try get some pictures next time its in the air, but the K looking one is at the front, and the straight one is at the rear. My Galant also came with the adjustable ralliart struts and a ralliart badge on the boot xD I like to pretend its all factory lol
