Default Strut Tower Brace Install
Well I decided to go junkyard hopping today and I got a Strut Tower Brace for my 89 Bonny for $10 bucks. I'd have to say that is the best dollar for dollar modication that can be done to these cars.

Do you know by chance who makes them. I only came across the front ones.

They do? Maybe the dealer stole it before I picked up the car?

My mom'* 1997 SSE had one. I feel like I've been ripped off. :(
