FSWERKS Upper Front Strut Stress Bar - Ford Focus Duratec 2.3L/2.0L 2003-2011
SKU: FS033KAn upper-front stress bar is an essential bolt on for all street & competition Ford Focus cars. The bar's rigid design helps to reduce the roll and twist of the front sheet metal frame, and in doing so quickens steering response and improves turn-in. Construction consists of strong 14-gauge mandrel bent heavy wall 7/8" diameter steel tubing. The tubing is then welded to 1/8" laser cut steel mounting plates. Designed specifically around the constraints of US model cars, the bar requires no modification of surrounding components (ie: Brake booster, fuse box, air box) when used in conjunction with the FSWERKS Cool-Flo or the stock factory air box. Fits all Duratec 2.3L & 2.0L. The FSWERKS upper-front stress bar is available in your choice of Chrome/Clear Powdercoated Finish or colored powdercoated finish.
Note:
Torque nuts to 18ft lbs

United States United StatesSo far so good! The handling feels much tighter and responsive. Did both front and back at same time. Definitely recommend if your tired of all the body roll.
CanadaInstallé sur mon Focus ST 2007, un look puissant, agrément au handling. J'ai aussi acheté celui de derrière et je ne regrette vraiment rien. Expédition soigneuse, service impeccable. Thanks again guys...
Translated; Installed on my Focus ST 2007, a powerful look, pleasant handling. I also bought the back one and I don't really regret anything. Careful shipping, impeccable service. Thank you Bruno :)
Made the front end feel much tighter. Took out some of the shutter when cornering. Worth it even on a wagon !
Best bang for your buck item for sure! I installed on my 07 Focus and it was truly surprising the difference in handling it made! The car feels so much tighter and "planted" going around turns. If you want that race car handling feel that youve always dreamed of, buy this strut brace!
