Default Tanabe Rear Underbrace + 4ws

I've searched and could not find the answer...

How many here have installed the Tanabe rear underbrace for a 4ws 4th gen prelude?

I have attempted removing the bolts to mount the brace and the bolt seems to have a offset washer as part of the bolt itself. The workshop manual describes it with this bolt for 4ws model.

The bolt doesnt fit into the brace circular piece...

The box for the brace states bb4 & bb6 incl 4ws so i'm not sure what to do...

got a pic of the braces? couldn't you just "open" up the hole on the brace where those oversized bolts go?

If so, just use a high speed step up drill bit and open it up a (unt hair

I will tell you, that doesn't seem to be like any flange bolt I have dealt with, but if thats the case just find the thread pitch of the bolt, get yourself a bolt and make your self a different washer.

That bolt is to adjust rear toe.

the post above me hit it on the spot that bolt is to adjust toe, and rear lower tie bars dont work on 4ws model because of that simple matter that it wont allow you to adjust your toe and there is a notch that it will sit on

Is it Toe or Camber adjustment on that bolt?


Here's pics of the brace on a 2ws model.
