Default I/O Port Brace with Hardbar

does anyone know if this will work? in the description of the brace it says it fits up to 1.75" bars but in the instructions it says the outer bolt holes can be used for 2" bars, in which case it should work. anyone done it before?

Works fine. (Was going to post a photo then I found out I didn't have one) Anyway that's the same system I have and it works great. In fact later today we're installing another IO Port seat brace on my buddy's Hardbar to stabilize his new Ultra Shield seat.

Just finished the install on the Ultra Shield seat with an IO Port brace on a Hardbar. TIP!!! Go get some 4 1/2" X 1/4" carriage bolts to replace the 3 1/2" bolts IO sends. Failure to do this can result in disabilitating stress and frustration. I forgot I had done that when I installed the two braces in my Z.
