In my 4ktq, I run h+r's with bilstein sports, after installing the susp, I
added frt strut brace ala 90cq(i think that is where it is from) bought from
dealer at a cost of about $100 can for the two plates and the bar. The bar
could be easily fabricated but for $30 why bother. Does seem to help stiffen
up the frt a bit. I also added a rear bar used coupe frt bar, frt control
arms, stock links bushings and hardware. Welded piece of bar stock cut a
slot in in and the factory brackets and bushings work perfect. I rec going
with a 4000q frt bar in the back though (have to get around to that still).
The coupe bar in the back helps alot but still plows somewhat, 4kq bar would
be better but don't think you ever be free of the plow effect... My .02
can...
