X-Braces
For those of you with a 2011-2014 S197 Mustang, you are well acquainted with how these cars handle. It is an easy car to modify for better handling to push it that last bit further to make it outhandle much more expensive cars, and with Steeda's handling upgrades it takes very little to turn your Mustang into a serious race car or canyon carver. Some parts help to keep the car composed around corners better than others and the Steeda X Brace is one such part that can immediately change the performance of the car.
One upgrade that has proven itself over and over is our X Brace kits which have several benefits over other options such as ease of access and install. The Steeda X Brace mounts behind the rear seats inside the trunk which means you can retain your rear seats in your car. Additionally, this installs far enough back in your trunk that you still have the majority of your trunk usable. Additionally, these X Braces can be mounted with bolts or can be welded as well. While some X braces do require removing the rear seats, some do not and as a result, are cheaper when not included with the delete.
Here at Steeda, we have been racing, modifying, and outfitting Mustangs with performance upgrades for over 30 years and in that time we learned what parts not only improve performance but also what it takes for these parts to be usable, stylish, and a good value all at once. We have engineered our X Braces to tie the rear of the car together better than when it was new which helps eliminate creaking or other vibrations. You will notice these braces when cornering at high speed or racing and they have been tested to ensure their performance.
