Product Details
Owners of the 1995-1996 Subaru Impreza WRX LX (GC/GF) can fit the Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace. The part number is KSB550. Placement: front. Whiteline's note for this fit: Mid Mount. Included: 1 strut brace and 6 washers.
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.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about half an hour. A wheel alignment is not required. To go with it on the Impreza WRX LX, see 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit, and Front Steering Rack And Pinion Mount Bushing.
Features
- Finish: The polished alloy finish is easy on the eye in the engine bay.
- Corrosion protection: Plated finish keeps rust off the hardware.
- Matched kit: Whiteline chose the bushings and geometry parts in this kit to suit the vehicle.
- Chassis stiffness: Helps keep alignment angles and spring rates consistent by cutting down flex.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
