They're on both of my 760 turbos too, I've got one off a Wentworth I broke which I need to tidy up and put on my 940, only been in the garage three years so it's ahead of schedule ATM

I bought a Viking Fabrications one for my 940. Very well made and possibly stiffer than the factory one https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069914663134

Would you sell it? I've already got the top strut brace, new bilsteins, classic swede springs and all associated bushes refreshed.

can't remember now. I think it might've been about £80. It was a couple of years ago so you would really need to check with Martin
