Ford Racing Strut Bar
The strut bars are mostly aftermarket car suspension accessories. They are used in conjunction with the MacPherson struts on the monocoque or unibody chassis to provide extra strength between the strut towers. In a MacPherson strut suspension, the springs and the shock absorber are combined into one suspension unit. In this suspension set-up, the entire vertical suspension load is transmitted to the top of the vehicle's strut tower. This is in contrast with the double wishbone suspension where the springs and the shock absorber may share the load separately. In a more general sense, the strut tower is a reinforced portion of the inner wheel and is not necessarily connected to the main chassis rails. And for this reason, there is an inherent flex within the strut towers relative to the rails. The Ford Racing Strut Bar is primarily designed to reduce this strut tower flex by tying the two parallel strut towers together. This will then transmit the load of each strut tower during cornering via the tension and compression of the strut bars, which will share the load between both towers and reduce the chassis flex. The specially-crafted strut bar replaces the production brace in use and allows the installation of the GT-40 induction system components. The performance part is also crafted from high quality strut tower braces and comes with fasteners and complete instructions on its easy installation. It has an E-coated brace that is painted for corrosion resistance. Simply browse through our user-friendly online site if you wish to find durable and reliable Ford Racing Strut Bar for your vehicle.
