Review on Drake Muscle Cars MO 280001 BL Aluminum by Luis Thompson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great Strut Tower Brace (Yes, this matches current year's Challenger, mine is 2018).

Installed on a 2018 Challenger Scat Pack. Attaching the strut to the top posts of the posts was easy and the strut is a well made, clean, high quality part. And it works very well, steering response is quicker, you have better road feel and overall handling is improved. I recommend this bracket. So why only 4 stars. Well, to attach the spacer to the frame you need to drill the car over the firewall. There are already holes in the frame above the firewall and it was easy to line up the mounting points and use the factory holes, but for some reason they didn't and you have to drill new holes a few inches from the factory holes. not cool. I only attached the strut to the strut mounts as I didn't want to drill holes in my car's frame, but even with the strut mounts in place there was a significant improvement in handling, primarily the increase in steering. the response where there was a little delay is now gone. I haven't decided yet if I want to drill my car. I can leave it as it is. But when I connect the brace to the frame, I intend to paint over the holes to prevent rust. The instructions don't say it, but I recommend it. If you want the brace to attach to the frame and don't want to drill holes, spend the extra money and buy a Mopar strut brace.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
