Strut bar = fun mod (if you like turning)
Why? Because your spring/shock assembly is not directly connected to the main chassis rails, there is a natural flex on the strut towers during cornering. Your strut bar reduces the flex by tying two parallel strut towers together. This transmits the load of each strut tower during cornering between both towers and reduces chassis flex. I usually do this as one of my first suspension mods. Improved chassis rigidity and you'll see understeer is reduced, tire wear is improved and metal fatigue is greatly reduced in the strut tower area. If you're trying to make turns, its a good mod. |

I have rear tower brace on my 91 GT. I got it from blue oval for about a 100 bucks. It took me about 2 hours to install. I can tell the difference when I go around curves.

The fox uses a solid rear. With a solid rear the need for a brace is almost nothing. It helps with a independent rear swap.
PS: It cant change tire wear.....its solid rear.... |
