chasis brace? C70

posted by  someone claiming to be Al on  Fri May 16 08:09 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I installed upper and lower braces on my 740Turbo - different car, same concept.
As I understand it, the brace stiffens the suspension. The same old tradeoffs apply - cornering is improved, steering response is better, ride harshness may suffer. The tradeoff on the 740 was well worth it. My guess is the C70 drop top would benefit, not sure if the coupe would be improved.

Mine were from www.ipdusa.com
