I planned on making my own strut bar for a 4th gen without the pivit arms so there wouldn't be a chance of brittle parts. after looking at my engine bay for a while i saw there was a lot of **** in the way by the strut bolts and that the angle of the body where the plate from the strut bar would mate to was not exactly flat (in the sense that it isn't really one plane and it is sloped). would It make sense to make it like this:

(ignore the dots and pretend the lines are connected..) I did some drawings on it but can't scan them 'cause i'm at work.. you know how the pivot pint on cheezy strut bars are toward teh inside? i thought it'd be easier to do it on the outside to get better room..

another problem i'm having and afraid of if getting an accurate measurement between the struts..

lastly, since the strut bolts angle down toward the center of the car, i believe one fabbed, I woudl have to unbolt on strut and pull below the mounting area because (it's hard to explain) but having to come straight down to mount to angled bolts won't work. if anyone had any input on this that would be great. and if you really help me out, when i get these made i'll give you one at no profit to me and discounts on my other stuff (but that's coming later)
