Strut braces

Ties the towers togetherso the geometry stays put.

A strut brace joins the two strut towers so the body flexes less under cornering load and the suspension geometry holds. Simple part, real effect on the right car. Supplied to order where one is available for your chassis.

Supplied to order

Strut braces are supplied to order where an application exists for your chassis — tell us the car.

We don’t show live third-party stock because we don’t have a live feed — we’d rather confirm availability and lead time with you than guess.

Strut braces

Ties the towers together so the geometry holds.

Worth knowing

The short version.

What a strut bar does

Under cornering load the strut towers try to move relative to each other, and the body between them flexes. A brace resists that, so camber and toe stay closer to where they were set. The effect is most noticeable on cars with a lot of chassis flex or a lot of grip — and least on very stiff modern bodies, which is why we say 'where one is available' rather than 'always'.

Separate from the packages

Strut braces aren't part of the handling packages. Where one exists for your car it can be supplied and fitted on its own — ask and we'll say whether it's worth it for your chassis.

Questions

Asked before you ask.

Is a strut brace worth it on its own?
On a car with noticeable flex, yes. On a stiff modern chassis, less so — spend the money on sway bars first. Tell us the car and we'll be straight about it.
Front or rear?
Front is the usual first fit. Rear braces exist for some chassis and matter more on cars that are driven hard. Availability depends on the car.
Does it affect the ride?
No. It changes how the body resists flex, not how the suspension moves.
