Ford Focus ST(2013-2018) Rear Mid Chassis Brace

Replaces the stock brace perfectly and gives the exhaust clearance where the stock brace didn't. It definitely made study and worth it.

My only complaint (which is why I am giving your four stars) is the lack of detailed installation instructions for the specific product (mainly on the rear torsion bar). We had to rely on the three pictures that each brace had on your website to get it installed and the pictures are not very detailed.

Once we figured it out, installation was not difficult and I am loving the improvements.

I will be buying the torque gusset traction bar and the 6 point crossmember brace in the next few weeks and hope to have better instructions.

Nice replacement upgrade for the thin piece of metal holding the rear mid chassis together. Would pair with the 2 front and rear traction arms!

The installation was quick and easy I had my car back on the road in minutes. Can’t wait to see how much of a difference this makes to my focus.

Bought this a while ago and remembered to drop a review now that I've used it for a while (1-2 years). I'm on a stock exhaust with a res delete. The mechanic who hack-jobbed my res delete fastened a secondary mid-pipe anchor over one of the holes this brace is supposed to mount. (side note: should've bought the TB res delete and done it myself). With some washers used as riser, I was able to mount this evenly on top of the bracket. Once installed, I did notice a nice change in steering compliance and just general feel by the seat of my pants. Just feels better. I mostly bought this a low-cost and easy-install proofing part for further purchases from TB. Needless to say I will return in the future for more chassis bracing once I've completed some other mods.

TL;DR: Solid product. Would highly recommend this part for that extra bit of late-corner stability . The only thing I had difficulty with was finding the OEM hardware as the previous owner removed the OEM mid-chassis brace. I forget the exact bolt spec but I would suggest TB put that in along with torque specs (I think it's 10 ft/lbs but I don't remember) as a note because they're often missing as the mid-chassis brace is often . Otherwise some blue Loctite and crush washers is really all you need. It's good-to-go.
