Ford Focus ST (2013-2018) 6 Point Crossmember Brace

One complaint I had was body flex from the Focus platform. I was reluctant to believe this brace could change the driving dynamic as much as it actually did.my Focus feels like my Mercedes, solid. Absolutely recommend the TB braces. They do what you want them to. I should have got this earlier, but at least I can now recognize the difference of before and after. Well done, it feels like a new body.

Coupled this with the torque gusset and what an improvement. The car feels much tighter in the corners. I can feel a better connection with it and to the pavement. Too notch performance as always.

Phenomenal fit and finish. On and off ramps are going to be a lotta fun!😉

If you are doing any of the bottom chassis pieces this is a must have! Install was easy, sure the subframe bolts are tight but just use a breaker bar lol. Other than that beware of rust on the old 15mm bolts when rethreading.

The construction of this brace is top-notch, like all of Danny's other products. Fitment was precise. The additional stiffness is very noticeable at speed, and I highly recommend for anyone who wants to overhaul their suspension for AutoX or spirited driving over twisty backroads.

When you install this, you're going to need to remove two 21mm bolts from the front subframe. For this, you really do need an impact wrench; mine were corroded a bit and stuck fast due to road salt and time. If you don't have one, HF sells them for reasonable prices. These bolts are in there TIGHT, and you're going to need some penetrating oil and/or propane torch if you don't have an impact. They are also (unfortunately) torque-to-yield bolts, so if you really want to be correct about it, you should replace with new bolts. I didn't, because I am a redneck who chews dip and speaks his mind, turning to the left. However, I *did* use high-strength threadlocker on these, torqued to at least 110 ft-lbs. AT MINIMUM (nobody has the torque specs for these bolts, unfortunately). YMMV. YOLO. Party on, Wayne.
