That's right guys, we have a new stock for the Center Bars for the RD's and others. The best part? These new ones, while not as BEEFY as the one I've got, look like they sit back much further, so they will be behind the rear passenger's calves. I'll have to check for sure but the pics look that way.

Maybe we'll do a GB on these eh? I'll have several GB's going on next month.

Info:

That is sweet. I have one question though and I hope that it is not stupid.

In the description, it says "Last strut point upgrade after the front and rear strutbars."

Yes I can read and I would assume that is means you need front and rear strutbars first. My question is what difference would it make?

Just trying to learn more on the topic.

I'm IN for the GB REDZ. So you can already count one as sold.

Tib.onrice :

Really its not the last strut point upgrade for two reasons :
#1.) Its not connected anywhere near the strut towers.
#2.) Wouldn't sway bars and LOWER strut bars be attached to (or very near) the struts??? Those would be the last points.

Now that being said...any reinforcement to the chassis helps.....most ppl do front bars, then rear ones, this would be the third one. but you could go ahead and get if even if you dont have front or rear (or both) bars and still notice a difference in cornering performance.

There is also a front UNDER strut bar, but I don't think they are on the site anymore.

Hmmm. I don't have to drill additional holes in the car? And it's not in the way? Hmmm
Did you say GB? For Cheaper?
I've already got the paint and drop cloth out!
What about that 'beefier' one, do they not make that anymore? Oh wait, but it's more in the way, huh?

Kayjai, yes, they break. I've seen pics of like 3 of them. Too much stress.


Gary, you've got one of those thick ass ones too? It's like 2.5 inches wide and half an inch or so thick?

I love it man, folks don't belive me that it makes a difference.

No holes, not in the way on this model it lookslike, GB, cheaper, paint?

The beefier one is no longer made.
