Product Details
Whiteline built the Front Strut Tower Brace for the 2008 Subaru Forester. Chassis code: SH. The kit contains 1 strut brace. Placement: front. Part number KSB568.
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. A wheel alignment is not required. To go with it on the Forester, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit.
Features
- Finish: A polished alloy finish adds to the look.
- Matched kit: Whiteline chose the bushings and geometry parts in this kit to suit the vehicle.
- Chassis stiffness: Reduces flex to help hold alignment angles and spring rates steady.
