Just put on a strut brace from Mustangs Unlimited and I have to say the car turns much better now, not near as much push. I highly recomended a strut brace.

My camera just went dead so Ill get some pics tomorrow. But just alittle run down on the mounting; it mounts with 2 bolts into the firewall(just take off the wipers & vent to acsess) and 2 bolts on each tower, you can reach under the fender to acsess.

Here ya go. One thing I forgot to mention is that the passenger side fo the brace is too close to the top of the strut thus the D-knob will not turn to adjust the strut. But a small price to pay for the improvement in handling. I just use an adjustable wrench in stead, problem solved. :)

JayG, am I wrong in assuming that the brace will not fit with a stock i/c??

Thanks Dave..

Looks like a very nice piece..

There is a strut brace that is made for the SVO.......dealer? ask Paul at SVPU.

I used the Kenny Brown "SCCA legal" two point brace that just tied the two shock towers together..........seemed to work perfect.
