Wide Strut Tower Brace for Gen3 - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

***Mister_Perkins*** · 02-26-2011, 07:47 PM

Hey guys, I've been looking online for a specific style strut brace for the 3rd gen. Toyota, but I haven't had any luck. I really liked my brace that was on my accord which was DNA Motoring strut tower brace, but DNA Motoring doesn't make one for toyotas * Sad Face

Anyways, if anyone knows of any links that would be great.

Heres a picture of the style I am looking for for reference. I don't want the Cylinder shaped bars

My gen 3 has a "Freedom Design" or something like that on it. Looks exactly the same, but silver.

Oh really? Awesome

I was kind of bummed that I couldn't find one.. I googled it and also looked on ebay, but they are all Cylinder shaped.

I'll have to google Freedom Design. Thx chris

I googled it .. Not quite what I'm looking for, but i'm getting close. I've been debating just getting a DNA Strut bar and Retrofitting it into my camry. Not sure about the width difference or anything though, so I am kind of hesitant

There's a generic picture for reference.

I'm just picky lol . I am not getting anything until I get to TX, but I just wanted to start getting some ideas together of what I wanted to do. I may just fabricate my own when I get down there

Yeah I was gonna say it's not that hard to make haha.

***Mister_Perkins*** · 02-26-2011, 08:30 PM

yeah, Its just easier to bolt a bar on rather than fabricate one

Thx for the info though.. I was beginning to think that there was only one manufacturer of strut bars. At least now I know there is more than one.. just none the style I want

I have the Freedom Design strut bar.

If you have a V6 it makes contact with the vacuum nipple on the throttle body and can bend or break it.

The strut bar I have is also that shape, not cylinder. It has a fake TRD sticker on it though so idk what the real brand is..

anything good about it not being cylinder?

the real trd strut bar is a box tube

you might be able to get one from a gen 1 solara? not sure on the fitment but a few came with them from factory

I have an Ultra Racing bar for the 4th gen on my gen3. fits perfect.
