You can make them up yourself- just measure between the tops of your strut towers and plug those points into Pro/E. Then literally connect the dots with a "custom" strut bar. Don't forget to the titanium.

yeah, really easy to get all the necessary measurements off any vehicle and then just fudge in all the other ones.

im kind of new to Pro/E so I'm not really understanding what you guys mean by guessing the numbers. It needs to be more exact because after the model is done, it needs to be analyzed in Mechanica. That is why I would prefer to get exact dimensions and specifications because each part of it needs to be modeled and assembled. But if worse comes to worse, how would I go about fudging everything to make it look exactly like the strutbar. I dont own a strutbar so this is why fudging might be hard. thanks.
