I bought my Bullitt brace from Levittown Ford £90 shipping + £50 tax. Machined it it my garage to fit RHD car in a few minutes :) @hinch its much heavier than the GT350 brace

What @Spider said. You should really use new nuts but it’s not critical and unlikely to come loose.
Don’t overtighten some guys in the US thought they had to be torqued like spacers and stripped the threads. 41 lb ft isn’t particularly tight

Am I right in thinking US cars don’t have the K brace, and the K brace does a similar job to the strut brace?
Is adding a strut brace (while leaving the K brace in place) not just adding weight, especially if loosely fitted with spacing washers?

When you buy a strut brace from the US it often comes with a K brace so you would imagine that there is some benefit to both.

one reduces body twist and one reduces body roll by locking the towers together ie: stops it lifting an inner wheel on high speed cornering.

Hello, would you have the part number for it? I can't seem to find it on the Levittown website.
Thank you

Do you know if is possible to buy just the GT350 tower brace without the k brace as the EU spec already have it installed?
