The Euro Sport 18030 (2pt) & 18035 (4pt) curved lower braces claim to fit around the 02A/02J gearboxes with the 1.8t conversions. They only sell in the US so it will cost a fair bit to have shipped over
The Ultra Racing lower brace LA2-979 also curves down giving more clearance rather than straight across braces like all the others such as the OMP & standard late cabby K-bar. This can be bought in the UK
Vagobonds-Tunning, current seller on Ebay, used to supply a rose-jointed lower brace to curve under the 02A/02J in red, black or cream a couple of years ago. I've not had a reply back yet so perhaps they don't do them anymore:

When changing the lower control arm on an Automatic Right side you have to Raise the Transmision about 4 inches on the back end to get Clearance to insert or remove the bolt, so the same would be for the lower K-bar and the clearance would diminish to such an extent that I would be worried about the Tranny beating itself up on the bolt head.
I am of the opinion that the lower K-Brace will not work on an Automatic…because of clearance issues, and the fact that over the X number of years I haven't ever seen one installed on a Auto.

Up on the Fylde, it rained in Great Eccleston this morning, and was gloomy, with rare fleeting flashes of sun, at Brockholes (junction 31 M6) this afternoon.
