Strut Bars
Strut bars—also called strut tower braces—reinforce the chassis by connecting the left and right strut towers. This reduces body flex under cornering loads, sharpening steering response and improving overall stability.
Common materials include lightweight aluminum, rigid steel, and carbon fiber. Most are designed for bolt-on installation using factory strut tower mounting points, with no permanent modifications required.
When choosing a strut bar, vehicle-specific fitment is essential. Verify the exact year, make, model, and suspension type to ensure proper clearance and mounting. Browse our selection to find the right brace for your chassis setup.

The Cusco Type ALC-OS front strut tower bar is engineered to increase chassis rigidity on the AE86 platform by reinforcing the front suspension towers. Under heavy cornering loads, the strut towers can flex, leading to inconsistent steering response and geometry changes. This bar ties the towers together to distribute load more evenly, sharpening turn-in and improving overall front-end feedback.
The ALC-OS series represents an evolution of the classic Type OS design, utilizing a high-rigidity oval aluminum shaft wrapped in a decorative and reinforcing layer of real carbon fiber. The steel end plates are finished in signature Cusco Blue and precision-cut for a direct bolt-on installation using factory mounting points.
- Position: Front
- Shaft Design: Type ALC-OS (Carbon fiber-wrapped oval aluminum)
- Installation: Direct bolt-on; no drilling or welding required
- Chassis Fitment: AE86 Levin / Trueno
