I was searching around looking for a strut bar for the front of my horizon, i found some on ebay but now they arent listed. i want to buy the one for the front
and if there are some that would work on the back, i would love that one also...


does anyone know of any that will work on these cars? i mean one from other model cars, that i could grab pretty decently price.

talk about confused, anyway

for the fun of it i looked at one for a 1st gen neon, it has 3 bolt holes and the two look like they would match mine perfectly, not too sure though.

has anyone used these on an L-body?

A front strut bar probally wont clear your TBI airbox. The rear is easy! I made my own!

So the first generation Neon strut bar is an aftermarket part?

No wonder I could not find it in the catalog!

I second getting one from Shelby Strut Bars, just installed mine this past weekend, WOW what a difference. I can now keep my way overpowered charger on the road, before the torque steer was horendous. Even with poly bushings and good alignment, i believe i was flexing the strut towers ALOT.
