      Yeah, I've never figured out the search function here. I gives me all the THREADS that the phrase appears on- usually a couple hundred that I need to read the entire thread to find what i want

      choose advanced search: https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/search.php
      on the bottom left is a check box for "show results as threads or show results as posts. Select posts, the individual posts with the search terms in it will appear.

      I don't know how to make it search for an exact match, I would think you'd put the term in quotes or brackets, but I haven't found anything that works, it seems to search for each individual word.
      Here is how to make google search for forum threads

      Thanks, this seems to work:

      In a google search window, enter:

      "front G brace" site:pro-touring.com/forum
