Product Details
This Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace fits the 2009 Subaru Forester XT (SH). The part number is KSB568. Included: 1 strut brace. This part is for the front of the vehicle.
Body panels flex slightly under load, and in a corner the tops of the front struts move toward and away from each other. This brace spans that gap, which stiffens the front of the chassis and lets the suspension do its job with fewer unwanted changes in geometry.
Installation is rated moderate, with about half an hour of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. To go with it on the Forester, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit.
Features
- Matched kit: Whiteline selected the bushings and geometry parts for this vehicle.
- Chassis stiffness: Helps keep alignment angles and spring rates consistent by cutting down flex.
- Finish: The polished alloy finish is a visual upgrade as well.
