first gen strut tower bars

I understand the merits of a front strut tower bar for our cars but am not sure that the rear bar could really make any differance.

My thoughts are the floor pan and the mounting point are so close together there cant be much movement if any the way it is.

Any opinions?

Im suprised no one chimed in on this.

Its a legal mod for most racing classes and works great as a harness bar.

They normally do not tie in anywhere but the top of the shock mounts which does nothing in the grand scheme of things.

Much better to design the cage the support and strengthen the upper side of where the rear springs sit.
