I think if you do a search on this forum, there's pictures of this installed in past posts.

thanks folks... ive read independent descriptions of the bars... but i wanna know if they serve the same function...

for ex... does the Cusco U-Shaped lower arm bar perform the same function as the X-Brace? do they mount to the same points? any reason to get them both?

is the tie bar in the front or the rear... or both?

i know about sway bars... im trying to understand what the other bars do, relative to each other...

A few customer threads on the Whiteline x-brace which braces both laterally and diagonally...

I think they all do about the same thing----tie together the lower suspension points to reduce or eliminate any movement. I put on a Cusco bar because of the price and the fact it doesn't lower ground clearance like some others do. Cusco is a Japanese company that makes a lot of high end suspension products for performance cars---Honda actually used Cusco suspension mods on their S2K show car last year
I've also ordered a number of items from MUZ--great service and high quality products--if you like the shape of his lower bar, you can't go wrong with it either.
