Steering Brace (Wonderbar) Off Ebay

Supposed to tighten up your sterring alot.. I wouldn't know what it's like not to have one, they came stock on my car... I could say though that the steering feels alot better than an RS I had gotten to drive..

So basically on my little 86 Berlinena or however u spell it, would be a nice little addition to the suspension? I don't believe I have one on there but will find out in a few days when i lift her up and start swapping suspension out

Re: Steering Brace (Wonderbar) Off Ebay

unvc, i checked out the link you gave and it appears that the one you gave me can use 3 bolts possibly three, where as the ebay guy assures you you can use 3 bolts for a better connection. I don't know if it matters but I will probably end up choosing whoever's shipping is cheapest.

There good, I got one. I haven't installed it yet, it is over here with me.
I was going to clone it form Titanium and make a few of them.
I got theres because they ship over here.

i wouldn't know man
you can email them because they usually respond pretty quick
just thought you might want something cheaper (if it is cheaper after shipping)

I run this on my 89 and did notice some improved steering response, its a nice piece. If you read through the ad the wonder bar also protects the steeriing box area which is known for cracking.
