If you're looking to tighten up your chassis and give your engine bay a bit of flair, the aFe Control Strut Tower Bar might just be what you need. This isn't just any brace; it's crafted from gunmetal gray powder-coated steel, which not only looks sharp but also stands up to the rigors of the road. The single tube design is MIG welded, making it a lightweight yet robust addition that enhances front-end rigidity. You’ll definitely notice a difference in how your ride handles, especially when you’re making those sharp turns.
Now, let’s talk about the craftsmanship. These strut tower bars are made from laser-cut 3/16" steel brackets and 16-gauge steel tubing. Everything is CNC bent and MIG welded to ensure a perfect fit. You won’t have to worry about any awkward installations here; it’s designed for a direct fit, which means no modifications are needed. Just bolt it on and you’re good to go.
One of the best parts? This product doesn’t require a CARB EO# for emissions, so you can install it without any headaches. Plus, it’s proudly made in the USA at aFe Control’s facility in Corona, California, which is always a nice touch for those of us who appreciate local craftsmanship.
As for fitment, this strut tower bar is designed specifically for the Subaru Forester H4 2.0L (t) from 2014 to 2018. So if you own one of these models, you’re in luck. It’s a solid upgrade that not only boosts performance but also gives your engine bay a unique look that stands out. Give it a try and feel the difference for yourself!
