Can someone direct me to a photo that just shows a stock xB from underneath the car itself lookin up.

I really need to see the original front stock brace for reference.

It has to be the OEM one that would get replaced by an aftermarket front H brace.

thanks in advance!

 

I don't think the new H brace 'replaces' anything. You just drop the four bolts that hold the engine cradle up and place the h-brace in place and replace the bolts.

I'm sure someone else has more info though.

As far as your photo...When the Scion website had the 1st gen xB on there, it had a movable model/illustration of the car that showed all views...including the undercarriage. I wish it was still there...it was cool. I'll see if I can dig up a photo.

 

There is something there. I just had the car aligned and it is sorta thin looking. I really am lost now.
I may be wrong. Thanks

 

the front stock brace(s) has two bars... round in the middle flat on the ends

 

i found these 2 pics...
see if it helps....



the are both from an echo... (but it's the same)

 

Cool pic.

So, something does not come off? The H brace is just put in that front spot?

I wonder what the heck I am thinking?

The reason I ask is because I want to replace the bolts with new ones when I put on the brace but I can't figure out the part number.

I also have the mid frame brace and that replaces the stock mid frame brace. I bought those bolts from the dealer for 4 bucks. Just can't figure out the bolts I need to buy for the H brace. GTSPEC does not give you bolts.

thanks again everyone

 

I guess I am looking for what JCT is refering to.
thanks

 

Yeah, you guys are right...there is something there...good pics....LOL, they reminded me what it looked like under there.

BTW, sorry for the misleading info and thanks to those that corrected me

 

Here is a quote from a thread I just found.

"unbolt the two dinky black bars from the left and right sides of the car. they really only work front to back stability. they are at the sides of the car, right after the wheels."

 

sorry to gank your pic
the factory braces are circled you can some what make it out

 

Oh yeah,,,I sorta see them.

OK thanks

Now the challenge is to find it on the parts fische for the bolt part number.

thanks a lot everyone

 

Front Suspension Member Reinforcement LH RH?

 

90119‑10473

that should be the number your looking for

 

Hey-
thank you very much!

It is a different part number than the mid chasis brace bolts.
What was your source?

really thanks a lot!

 

mid chasis bolts are 91511-C0818.

if anyone is interested

were both right about the part numbers but we looked in two completely different spots for the bolt p/n

 

So, its the same bolt for the mid chasis brace and the forward braces?

Same size?


My head is gonna explode, if true.

 

that i haven't got a clue

there is one way to find out is to crawl under there and sway one bolt from each to see if it works out...

 

I hear that. Super cold and snowy right now.

I am just referring to what you wrote about us both being right.

Not sure what you meant.
