Rear tower strut

Pilo racing just came out with a new item to compliment the variety of front strut tower braces already available in the market. This rear brace mounts in about 10 min is fully adjustable and VERY well finished. Will be taking the car thru my little test road this weekend and I'll post my findings, Randy

The originator of this thread hasn't posted on here in nearly 2 years.

I suggest you contact the vendor and ask about a rear strut brace.
