If the chassis is bending, the suspension system is not being used to its full potential. The SUSTEC TOWER BAR helps reduce chassis flex, allowing the dampers, springs, and stabilizers to show their true ability. STEP 2 UNDERBRACE ADDITION reduces chassis flex underneath the car in areas near the transmission tunnel and between structures under the front and rear subframes.

Reinforced Lip, Extruded Centershaft

While simple in appearance, the design of the centershaft has a signigicant amount of engineering put into it. The construction os reinforced extruded aluminum, which features dual reinforced lips on the underside, as well as tapered ends for addititonal rigidity. The centershaft is very lightweight, so weight os not added to reanforce the chassis.

Adjustable Preload
A very common error when installing tower bars. It is always recommended to raise the vehicle when installing so that the load of the shock uppermounts on the shock towers is relieved and balanced out. When raised, and the tower bar is placed onto the vehicle, the reload can be adjusted and set. After it is bolted on and the car is lowered, each shock tower will hace equal load and will prevent independent movements of each shock. This will provide an extremely noticeable difference after installing. If a tower bar is installed on a car that is not raised, great benefits will be missed.

Ultra Durable Steel End Plates
The end plates are 100% steel for maximum strength and durability. Extremely budget tower bars commonly use aluminum end plates, which are highty subject to deformityand breaking. Out 100% steel end plates are engineered for durability, so that the stress property transfers to the bar, and does not overstress the welds and mounting brackets.
