quick silly question: I need to remove JCW Strut brace from Streghina as she will go very soooooooon. What do I have to do after opening the bonnet?

Thank you for your help

 

I think the nuts holding it on are a 12mm hex, grab a socket and ratchet and take off the ones holding the brace, pull off the brace and then replace the nuts.

 

Just be careful not to over tighten the nuts or take them off to quickly because you may strip the bolts. Other than that, it is easy.

Actually now that I think about it, the nuts that are used for the JCW brace are JCW nuts. Take nuts off of one of the other MINIs and replace them. You want to keep the nuts with the brace.

 

Guys thank you for the help .. Streghina is now gone !!

 

Do you know where can I buy a Rear Brace, the one that I´m looking for is the one from cusco. I would like to order it in the U.S, not in Europe.
Thanks!
