2G Will a 3g strut bar fit on 2g GS?

[eSCAPEist_]

Just wondering if an eclipse 3g strut bar would fit on a 2g GS w/ 420a?

No.

Secondly, unless you're tying to the firewall, front strut bars basically do nothing on a 2G.

Are you saying that for certain, or are you just saying no? I for one am quite surprised at how 3g parts fit on 2gs.

To the OP, take a tape measure, and find out yourself. Then all you have wasted is some time, and you have learned that it does or does not fit. It's too bad the internet seems to have gotten rid of the trying side of things when it comes to working on cars.

No.

Unless you have crappy tires and a lousy suspension, a front STB will help a 2G, even if not triangulated.

Do the string test or use a stop watch.

I noticed a difference when I first put strut bars on my 2G.
Really tightens everything up.

Since it's been nearly 11 years, I'm going to assume not. Perhaps I should go measure them myself.

I ordered a 3G bar will report back once it comes in
