Re: Wondering?

super better? the combination of the two will make it handle a little better, the steering will be a little more precise, maybe not "super better".

If after swapping in the Wonderbar you experience a "night and day" difference, the steering box area may require more attention/repair than the brace will be able to BandAid.

Without after market strut mounts (such as Spohn's Spherical Upper Strut Mounts), you may not experience the full benefit of the STB.
