This Mustang strut tower brace is designed to clear the factory intake tubing as well as most cold air intakes. Why Do I Need It? Under hard cornering and when driving over uneven surfaces the unsupported strut towers momentarily shift out of alignment, influencing suspension geometry and reducing stability and control. The BBK Mustang Strut Tower Brace adds rigidity by eliminating that strut tower flex. The BBK Strut Brace triangulates the strut towers and firewall together for maximum support. Durable Finish This Mustang strut tower brace is finished in durable Black powder coat for a long service life. Like all BBK products, this brace is designed and manufactured in the USA. Simple Installation Fabricated from strong heavy wall steel tubing and welded with precision cut brackets and corner gussets, this brace is designed for an easy installation with basic tools.
