Front and rear strut bar brace set for BMW E46 models. They are suitable for all petrol and diesel engines, except for E46, S54, M3, and M43, 4 cylinder engines. They are also suitable for coupe, sedan, touring, and compact. They do not fit the convertible models. The strut brace bars provide more stability and improved steering as well as sustainable stiffening of the body. The product is MIG-MAG welded, laser cut and CNC milled. The strut bar is powder-coated in black and the mounting holes are embossed to ensure durability and functionality. The steel thickness is 3mm. All Drift-King strut braces do not require an ABE and are registration-free. An ABE is only required if the strut brace has to be welded to the body. Drift-King strut braces are screwed on and therefore neither an entry nor an ABE is necessary. Strut braces are used to stiffen the body. Strut braces are usually retrofitted to increase the strength of the body. In particular, if changes have been made to the chassis and there is a higher load on the body, the installation of a strut brace is useful. A strut brace connects the two front or rear strut domes with one another. This prevents the geometry of the chassis from changing. The aim is to improve driving behavior, especially when cornering, and to stabilize it. Quality product from Hamburg.
