Show original supplier description
The TB Performance Rear Mid Chassis Brace is a performance upgrade specifically engineered for the Ford Focus ST models (2013-2018). It directly replaces the less robust OEM stamped steel brace, addressing common issues such as exhaust systems rattling against the factory component, especially after modifications like turbo installations. The brace is constructed from durable tube steel and features a MIG-welded I-beam design, which is optimized for the highest torsional strength. By increasing chassis rigidity, it contributes to improved cornering grip and overall traction. The product is proudly made in the USA, reflecting a commitment to quality manufacturing. Installation is straightforward, designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory brace. Customers have reported noticeable improvements in how the car feels during cornering and over uneven surfaces after installing this brace. One reviewer specifically mentioned that it stopped their resonator from banging on the factory brace after installing a turbo, also noting a felt increase in stiffness. The overall build quality and finish have been praised, with many recommending it to other Focus ST owners.
