strut tower bar

[Chris Faulk]

Most adjustable strut bars for the 95-99 Dodge Neon work with only having to drill one or two holes, thats what I did for mine to fit. They are adjustable in almost every direction so only the plates need modification.

Sounds good...I will start looking for one of those strut bars.

One of these would fit on a GLH?

Here is an alternative. I've made 3 so far.

The thin wall alumnum (read cheap) strut bars flex to much to do any good. Make sure it is thick wall aluminum or use steel for the cross brace.

Not that I've ever seen (maybe someday?), but Turbos Unleashed does make one at a good price.

Chris, I believe that is the same one Cindy sells with the cast endplates. I'd go to a machine shop and have some nice endplates custom made or better yet a complete assembly. Forward Motion makes a strut bar but I don't think I've seen any of them installed or any comments on them.

I'm pretty sure most bars will not work on L-bodies because of the drip pan. Also, the bars may not work regardless of the car if you have a 2-piece intake though I'm not 100% sure on that.

What did it take to make it fit? Re-drill any holes?

I had to re-drill all 3 holes on mine to make it fit the way i wanted it to.

If Cindy had something I would order there. I just don't trust TU enough to even look to see what they have available. I will have to check with Cindy.

We share the same vendor which means it is the identical product.

Mind posting in public what the coating fee is? And what colors it can be coated...

Thanks man!

You are correct sir, but ouchy on the price. High-end but ouchy!

I like mine that I got. It made of steel and off a buick. I just made new end plates from 1/8 plate steel bent it and welded it to the buick mounts. Works great. I don't have drip pan anymore either but this one clear the hood just fine.

Btw this and old photo when I had it painted sliver.

I am unhappy with my Anders strut bar, which came from FWDP (same as TU). The cast end plates are very brittle and they will crack in half if you try to tighten them down to spec if your strut towers are not completely flat on top. Nice design, but cast aluminum plates don't cut it.

i like mine

! This is actually the second Anders product I have bought. The first was a solid bobble strut and that busted in half too!
