Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Strut Tower Brace fits the 2008 Subaru Forester Sports 2.5 X, Sports 2.5 XT (SH). Placement: rear. Application note: Incl quick release clamp. Part number KSB590Q. The kit contains 1 strut brace and 2 quick release clamps.
Chassis stiffness is easy to underrate. A brace across the rear strut towers connects two points that would otherwise move on their own, which keeps that end of the suspension working as designed.
Expect a moderate job of about half an hour. It does not require a wheel alignment. We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, and 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts for the Forester.
Features
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
- Chassis stiffness: Reduces flex to help hold alignment angles and spring rates steady.
- Finish: The polished alloy finish is a visual upgrade as well.
