Pretty epic weekend! Drove down to Adelaide from Sydney to see Jamie at Loudz on Friday. Dropped the car off Friday night and picked it up early Sunday morning. Massive shoutout to Jamie for being so accomodating with the late nights and even picking me up and dropping me back at my accomodation.

Even got a little subtle change made at the same time with the reflector.

Ok so besides looking cool does the shocker tower strut brace make a difference. ...... well I've done 7240 before I fitted it and been driving around and unless its psychological l think it actually makes a difference...its not a big difference but makes the front turn better

It's interesting that this brace is secured by two bolts on either side whereas the Steeda brace has 4 bolts on either tower, wonder if it makes a difference or it makes the Steeda stiffer?

Cheers

The key force it's meant to resist is the towers moving in the same plane of motion as the brace, so the two points should be plenty.

That said sometimes the extra metal from a brace can serve as reinforcement of the tower itself...
