Does looks pretty slick, but is it actually worth it?

Could you achieve the same results by having a similar bar installed inside near the floor, right behind the seats?

Like those monkey bars or whatever they're called.

I have the Cusco bar too and it made a big difference in steering response.


BTW it's a tie bar not a strut bar.

How's it like going over speedbumps with that thing? Esshh, i'm thinking the bar wouldn't last very long.

I drive mine with almost a 4" drop and the bar only scrapes once in a while. If you pay attention to the road you'll be fine.
