{"product_id":"1-2-backbone-brace","title":"1\/2\" Backbone Brace","description":"Convertibles, by nature, have a shorter section height between the door openings, making them more susceptible to chassis flexing under dynamic driving conditions. This brace replaces the stock, flimsy stamped steel component with a robust 6061 aluminum backbone.\n\nBy significantly improving the vehicle’s torsional rigidity, the DDMWorks Backbone Brace transforms handling. Drivers will experience quicker steering response, faster reactions, and a more planted feel through corners. This upgrade creates a solid platform for the suspension to perform optimally, leading to a more precise and engaging driving experience without introducing a harsher ride. The brace is constructed from premium, lightweight, and durable 6061 aluminum.\n\nDDMWorks offers the Backbone Brace in three distinct versions to suit various driving needs: the Base 1\/4\" for light everyday driving, the Performance 3\/8\" for spirited daily driving, and the Race-Track 1\/2\" version for dedicated track use. The Race-Track model features cut-outs to maintain a similar weight to the 3\/8\" version while providing increased stiffness. The recommended installation torque specification is 13-15 ft-lbs.\n\nThis Backbone Brace is specifically designed to fit 2006+ Pontiac Solstice models (including GXP) and 2006+ Saturn Sky models (including Redline).","brand":"DDMWorks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687662088504,"sku":"DDM-8-9-R","price":319.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/664192132.jpg?v=1784885808","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/1-2-backbone-brace","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
