Steeda G-Trac Brace

Is the Steeda G-Trac brace worthwhile for a V6/performance package car? It's $63, and I'm already buying a tune from them, so I would just tack this onto the order.

Just curious to know if it's worth the $60, since there seems to be so little said about it, especially regarding the newer Mustangs (2011+).

Nothing? Is no one using these or what?

For $100 or less, are there any other suspension/chassis mods that are worthwhile (and can be ordered from Steeda)?

Its suppose to add a bit of stiffness to the k-member area..I do think it will make a bit of a difference sort of like a front strut bar.


I will either adding this brace or the Stifflers bar to complete my suspension among other pieces. Imo Stifflers is better constructed and adds a bit more rigidity then the Steeda piece.

Yeah, I already have a strut brace, so this should help a bit more...for $60 I just went ahead and ordered it. We'll see if it's a noticeable difference. Right now the biggest issue with suspension/chassis is the rear end not being planted on the crap Michigan roads...so it's not like I'm even looking for more front end stability right now. Will have to wait until I spring for lower springs/shocks/control arms/etc. to fix all that.

The control arms will help rear stability, but the upper will definitely add extra NVH. (in addition to being a pain to install) A watt's link should help, as it'll stop your axle from moving laterally when the load changes, but it's a pretty expensive upgrade.
