Improves Handling Performance. Improve your Mustang's handling performance by reinforcing your rear shock towers with a SR Performance rear shock tower brace. A SR rear shock tower brace will stiffen your Mustang's chassis to reduce suspension flex and improve traction for impressive corner carving handling.

Superior Construction. The SR Performance Mustang Rear Shock Tower Brace is made from heavy duty tubular steel to keep your rear end from flexing under g-load and is completed in a durable triple plated chrome finish for classic good looks and long lasting corrosion resistance.

Application. The SR Performance Rear Shock Tower Brace is designed to fit all 1979 to 2004 Mustangs, including the LX, V6, GT, Bullitt, Mach 1, and SVT Cobra models. Technical Notes. Some modifications and welding may be required for installation. 1979-1993 hatch back will require light trimming of factory inner quarter panel sight plugs over rear shocks. All other models will require trimming of factory inner trunk liner.

Installing rear shock tower brace Wil the brace have to be welded in. or can it be simply bolted on?

Just bolted on, that is what I did and it work perfectly
you can do it both ways, easiest is bolting it on. unscrew the strut bolts and slip it over and bolt back on. It should not take no more then 20 mins taking your time and having the tool needed ready.

What is the measurement from center to center of the holes?

My cars shocks/struts are not that old but having a passenger and big grocery hall and it floats all over the road and bottoms out easily. Will this and the front brace help or do I need a pricier setup? Thanks!

The SR Performance Rear Shock Tower Brace and SR Performance Front Strut Tower Brace will reduce flex from side to side, but will have no effect on the vehicle bottoming out. This is most likely caused by failing or failed shocks/struts, or spring rates that are too low (soft) or too low of a ride height.

Does this fit a 1983 Mustang GLX Convertible? Trunk seems a lot smaller with the convertible top storage. Not sure about accessing the shock towers inside for installation. 2 answers

This part will not just fit the convertible application, the power top motor is right in line with the shock towers. Maybe you can relocate the power top motor?
What part of it fits (79-04 ALL) do you not understand. Yes it will fit

Easy

Really easy install. The most difficult part was in removing the material covering the top of the shocks. Once that was done, it was a matter of removing the nuts and slipping the bar on and reinstalling the nuts. The car feels a lot more solid going around corners and even when hitting bumps in the road. Worth the money and time it takes to install. 20 minutes.

Cool piece

I bought this to compliment my project to replace the rear shocks. Looks great back there. The back end feels a lot tighter than before but i just put on performance shocks and my test drive was short. Install wasn't bad. Had to cut up my interior panels but the adjustable shocks made that mandatory anyway. Just made the holes bigger to accommodate the shock tower brace. Price is right, nice easy mod, looks awesome, hopefully is doing it's thing back there.

Keeps it tight cornering

For the most part, easy install. Had to use cordless impact to get the nut off the strut, which was unexpected. Took about 30 minutes to install in 88 Convertible. Not much body roll in the rear after this part was installed.

Review from SR Performance Rear Shock Tower Brace - Black (79-04 All)

Big improvement

I bought these with the SR front brace and SR sway bars for my 2K GT convertible. The combination made a huge improvement in my car's handling...feels like a sports car should. ((Many claim the front and rear braces have little effect, but in my opinion any extra stiffness in the chassis is a good thing---especially when I was installing the bigger sway bars---it made sense to stiffen the entire rectangle)). Be careful cutting your trunk liner. I got a little carried away on one side before I realized it. Enjoy.

OK Fitment

If your looking to buy this and only bolt it in, this this prouct will work just fine for you. I wanted to weld mine in, and spent more time and effort making spacers to fill in the gaps in the sides, and grinding the paint down than worthwhile. If you want to weld one in it would be much easier to make your own. With it welded in now though, the product looks nice and adds a bit of rigidity to the rear end.

Review from SR Performance Rear Shock Tower Brace - Black (79-04 All)

SR Performance Brace

Install was easy, just take off top shock bushing and bolt. Place brace on shock tower lining up holes. Reinstall bushing and bolt. Some are saying to weld this in place, the only place that contacts shock tower is top. On my car, sides are a good 1/2 inch away from brace. So maybe if welding just bead the top ? Car is an 88 convertible. It has not had a hard life. However this brace did seem to tighten up the rear of the car a little. I added a new k member and k member brace before this and those tightened up the car more. For the money and ease of install this is a good deal.
