Product Details
Looking for a front strut tower brace for your 1996-1997 Subaru Impreza WRX Brighton (GC/GF)? The Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace is made for it. This part is for the front of the vehicle. Application note: Mid Mount. In the box: 1 strut brace and 6 washers. Part number KSB550.
Chassis stiffness is easy to underrate. A brace across the strut towers connects two points that would otherwise move on their own, which keeps the front suspension working as designed and gives the steering a more consistent, communicative feel.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about half an hour. It does not require a wheel alignment. Working on the same car? We also list 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit, and Front Steering Rack And Pinion Mount Bushing for the Impreza WRX Brighton.
