UMI Performance Three-Point Front Reinforcement Frame Brace for 1978-1988 GM G-Body (3053-R)
$299.99
This product will be available for sale in 2 weeks, but you can pre-order now to receive 10% discount!
Fits 1978-1988 GM G-Body models including Buick Regal, Chevrolet El Camino, Malibu, and Monte Carlo, Oldsmobile Cutlass, and Pontiac Bonneville and Grand Prix.
The UMI Performance 3053-R three-point front frame brace is engineered to significantly stiffen the front frame horns and front crossmember area of the GM G-Body platform. By tying these critical points together, this brace reduces chassis flex and improves steering response and handling predictability. It serves as a high-performance replacement for the OE reinforcements and the common "Grand Prix Bar," providing a more rigid three-point connection.
Designed for versatile use in street, strip, autocross, or road racing, this brace maintains a lightweight profile without sacrificing structural integrity. The bolt-in design utilizes factory mounting points for a straightforward installation that requires no drilling.
- Direct Bolt-In: Installs using existing factory points with no drilling required.
- Three-Point Design: Stiffens the front frame horns and crossmember for reduced chassis deflection.
- High-Strength Hardware: Includes a full set of Grade 8 mounting hardware.
- Lightweight Construction: Weighs less than 10 lbs to preserve front-end balance.
- Durable Finish: Protected by a tough red powder coat for maximum corrosion resistance.
- Made in the USA: Designed and manufactured in Philipsburg, PA.
- Manufacturer Part Number: 3053-R
