Product Details
This page covers the Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace for the 1991-1997 BMW 325i 3 Series. It is listed for the E36 chassis. Application note: Excluding Traction Control Equipped Models. You receive 1 strut brace. Whiteline part number: KSB536. Placement: front.
A strut tower brace ties the two upper strut mounts together with a rigid bar, so the tops of the front struts cannot flex independently when cornering loads push on the body. Holding them steadier helps keep alignment angles consistent and sharpens turn-in and steering feel.
Installation is rated moderate, with about half an hour of work listed. A wheel alignment is not required. Other Whiteline parts we list for the 325i 3 Series: Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing, Front Strut Tower Brace Quick Release Kit, and Rear Trailing Arm Lower Front Bushing.
Features
- Warranty: Whiteline's listed warranty is 3 years and 60,000 miles.
- Chassis stiffness: Helps keep alignment angles and spring rates consistent by cutting down flex.
- DIY friendly: A straightforward bolt-on job for a home mechanic.
