BMR Front Strut Tower Brace - Red Powder Coat (STB011R) - 2005-2014 Ford Mustang GT & Boss 302
Reduce power-robbing chassis flex and maximize handling precision on your S197 pony car with the Front Strut Tower Brace from BMR Suspension. Under intense cornering, hard braking, or aggressive launches at the drag strip, the front unibody platform on 2005-2014 Mustangs experiences substantial structural flex. This twisting changes critical suspension geometry and distorts wheel alignment under load, leading to unpredictable handling, decreased steering feedback, and reduced front-end stability. BMR’s STB011R connects the front strut mounts to form a rigid structural bridge, reinforcing the unibody and keeping your front tires firmly planted.
Engineered for high-performance street driving, drag racing, and track day handling applications, this 2-point brace is contoured to clear specific engine setups. It is manufactured from robust 1-x-2-inch rectangular steel tubing precision MIG-welded to heavy-duty, laser-cut 3/16-inch steel plate mounting brackets. This design substantially stiffens the front subframe structure, forcing your front suspension components to work more efficiently. Featuring a 100% direct bolt-in architecture, the brace can be easily installed under your hood with basic hand tools in less than an hour, requiring no modifications, drilling, or custom welding.
Finished in a brilliant, long-lasting red powder coat for exceptional scratch and corrosion resistance, this brace delivers an aggressive, race-inspired appearance under your hood. When performance is a must and you want an instantaneous upgrade in steering response and front chassis stiffness, rely on BMR Suspension.
