Default Subaru uprated rear diff support brace v3/4 fittment

A rear diff support bracket for a classic Subaru v3/4.
I fabricated one of these for myself and ended up knocking up a few more as I made a jig and had some materials left.
This is a great cost effective mod, it takes the job out of the standard rubber diff bushes and bolts it solid to the subframe removing the sloppiness and increasing throttle response.
Works a treat on my 320bhp Subaru sti powered Peugeot 205.
This will slightly increase NVH although I can't notice it on my car as it's loud as hell anyway.

£58 delivered.

All the nuts,bolts and washers included.

Cheers James

Hi mate, yes as Joe says it's easy to fit, just remove the two stock diff mount nuts, fit the new brace and re fit the nuts plus the two extra nuts and bolts to secure it solid to the subframe.
No drilling required as it uses the holes that are already in the subframe.

Hi Joe, no I don't think it will fit mate, the subframe is different.
