All FDs came from the factory with a rear shock tower brace.

There are some replacement bars:

IMO, they aren't worth it unless you need to hook your harness to them.

Keep in mind that the factory rear strut tower brace is in no way an acceptable harness connection point or anything like a roll bar. So if you intend to set up a harness, you'll need a different beam there.

I would go so far to say that if you are running a harness for anything other than auto-x, I would install a rollbar, period.

I would check the huge cage/rollbar thread in the racing sub-forum.

These cars arent' GM F-bodies, they don't need sub-frame connectors....
