Will S5 Strut Bar fit S4 ?
 
I'm in the process of buying a used Cusco Strut Bar for my '87 FC for a good price, but I'm a little stumped. The seller says it was pulled off a '89 13BT. I dont wanna pass on a sale like this, but don't know if it will fit or not. I would ask the seller, but I trust fourm members more then someone trying to get a few bucks real quick. Any help. suggestions are greatly appreciated.

No difference in strut towers. Same thing.

Example: 86-92 Strut Tower Braces

Thank you very much.

Mounting is the same. However, S4's require slightly difference clearance than S5's due to the nipple that connects the filler neck to the overflow tank. I have the cusco front bar on my s4 and it is a pretty tight fit. Just make sure you route the throttle cable under the overflow tube.

edit: Also, the only time I've heard of a strut bar interfering was because it was a generic ebay bar.

Thanks for the heads up.
