Diesel syncro engine bars

Post by andylen »

Does anyone know how much lower the engine sits in a diesel syncro.
Fitter engine on non syncro bars and it looks as if it is too high.
Can someone please measure from the chassis to the mounting bolt too see if it is the same as mine.
thanks in advance

The WBX sits about 1~1.5" lower i believe, but if you phone Russel at Syncro-Nutz, I'm sure he'll be glad to tell you the difference in the diesel.

The petrol engine sits 2 inches lower than 2WD and the diesel is 1 3/4 inches lower.
