Product Details
Made to fit the 1999 Subaru Legacy (BE/BH), the Front Strut Tower Brace from Whiteline. This part is for the front of the vehicle. The kit contains 1 strut brace and 6 washers. Whiteline part number: KSB550. Whiteline's note for this fit: Mid Mount.
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.
Installation is rated moderate, with about half an hour of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. To go with it on the Legacy, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
Features

- Matched kit: Each part in the kit was picked to suit the vehicle.
