keith.rose1 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Petty strut to fit my 1992 S3 Super Sprint with a single diagonal FIA roll bar.Even if you haven't got one, do you know for sure the part No or designation of the one I need? And where to get one? I have asked Redline over the weekend and am waiting their response. I am hoping to join the Speed Championship and need to have one fitted.

Drumster Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 If no luck on here or at Redline, it's probably with a call to Bruce at Arch Motors as I believe they made them. Once you have one unless your FIA rollover bar already has an homologation sticker then you'll also need to speak to Bruce who can provide them.

Wrightpayne Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 FIA strut RHD 90 onwards part number 79047 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 FYI its in two parts with a sleeved joint. You bolt it into the car, then drill the sleeve joint and bolt together. It then fits your chassis perfectly! There will be a threaded boss on the passenger side at the front of the door step just below the top. You need to drill out a few rivets on the interior panel. When I found the bush, drilling the interior ally panel the drill slipped through quickly and I nearly punctured the outer skin :-0I have a cage fitted now so the outer skin is drilled.Let me know if you need any help (post lockdown!)Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
