Product Details
Fitted to the 1995-2000 Subaru Impreza WRX Outback: the Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace. It is listed for the GC/GF chassis. Application note: Mid Mount. Placement: front. Included: 1 strut brace and 6 washers. Order it as part number KSB550.
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 Impreza WRX Outback: 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit, and Front Steering Rack And Pinion Mount Bushing.
