BMR Front Strut/Shock Tower Brace - Brushed Stainless Steel (STB008) - 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V
Reduce performance-robbing chassis flex and maximize handling precision on your first-generation luxury muscle sedan with the Front Strut Tower Brace from BMR Suspension. The 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V delivers impressive V8 power, but its unibody chassis experiences notable flex under load—even with mild amounts of horsepower and torque. During hard cornering, heavy braking, or aggressive acceleration, the front shock towers deflect, twisting your alignment geometry and dulling steering response. BMR’s STB008 connects the front strut mounts to form a rigid structural bridge, reinforcing the unibody and keeping your front tires firmly planted.
Optimized for high-performance street driving, drag racing, and track handling applications, this premium 2-point brace is engineered for extreme structural strength. It features a high-end construction utilizing robust 1-x-2-inch rectangular brushed stainless steel tubing mated to heavy-duty, laser-cut 3/16-inch steel plate mounting brackets. This robust combination significantly rigidifies the front subframe structure, allowing your front suspension components to work more efficiently for sharper turn-in and superior driver feedback. Boasting a 100% direct bolt-in architecture, the brace installs easily with basic hand tools in less than an hour, requiring no custom fabrication, drilling, or welding.
Constructed from gorgeous brushed stainless steel with black brackets, this brace stands out in the engine bay while ensuring excellent long-term corrosion resistance. When performance is a must and you want an instantaneous upgrade in steering confidence and front chassis stiffness, rely on BMR Suspension.
