Description

There are many different types of chassis braces, the most common being strut tower braces on the front or rear. Not all cars use actual struts though the term “strut brace” is still used to describe a brace between shock towers. For example Honda Civic, S2000, Nissan Skyline and Ford Falcons are sometimes fitted with a front upper shock brace but it does not have as direct an impact as bracing actual strut towers.

The reason is that a MacPherson Strut integrates the wheels upper link point into the actual strut. Hence a significant proportion of wheel load is located by and dealt with the strut. Vertical loads from the wheel pass through the strut and spring up to the strut top and towers which leads to flex in the sheet metal around the strut tower and inner guard. In fact, we’ve measured up to 15mm of flex on some cars which translates to up to 1 deg of dynamic camber change. Some vehicles will benefit more than others with age being a factor. But, even the newest vehicles have some rigidity problems due to the method of construction. Many new cars have the complete firewall and dash assembly lowered through the windscreen aperture then glued in place. This may actually be more rigid in some directions as claimed by the car makers but we know that fitting a strut tower brace on these vehicles makes a very noticeable difference.
