Product Details
Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace is made for the 2002-2004 Subaru Outback H6. Order it as part number KSB550. Chassis code: BE/BH/BP. Trim named on the listing: H6. Application note: Mid Mount. The kit contains 1 strut brace and 6 washers. It goes on the front of the vehicle.
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.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about half an hour. It does not require a wheel alignment. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Outback: Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Front Steering Rack And Pinion Mount Bushing.
