Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Strut Tower Brace fits the 1997-1999 Subaru Legacy Outback Limited (BE/BH). This part is for the rear of the vehicle. Chassis code: BE/BH. You receive 1 strut brace and 2 quick release clamps. Application note: Incl quick release clamp. Whiteline part number: KSB590Q.
A strut tower brace ties the two upper strut mounts together with a rigid bar, so the tops of the rear struts cannot flex independently when cornering loads push on the body. Holding them steadier helps keep alignment angles consistent and sharpens steering feel.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about half an hour. No alignment is needed afterward. To go with it on the Legacy Outback, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing, and 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts.
Features
- Finish: Polished alloy construction looks good in the engine bay.
- Chassis stiffness: Helps keep alignment angles and spring rates consistent by cutting down flex.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
