Q: What are subframe braces? Why buy them?
A: A subframe brace is a structural device that links the lower portion of your vehicle’s suspension to provide increased rigidity and reduced deflection to improve handling, vehicle control, and safety. Most modern rides rely on subframes to attach the suspension components to the chassis. These subframes can twist and deflect under harsh driving conditions causing sloppy and unpredictable handling characteristics. On the track this can mean valuable seconds, but on the street it can be a safety hazard as well. By firmly connecting and reinforcing your suspension components with a subframe brace you will have more predictable handling which will improve your confidence and help keep your vehicle both safe and fast as you drive down the road. In addition the added strength of a subframe brace can improve the lifespan of suspension components and the overall reliability of your ride.
