Yes and the OP wanted to know if anyone was coming out with a strut bar to fit the LNF anytime soon.

The answer is clearly "NO"

And furhtermore its a nonissue because they dont provide any measurable or proven benefits.





You really need to get off the the "prove its negative" kick. Why is it that you guys dont need to see ANY information, data, or testing at all proving a products worth or fitness before youll lay down your hard earned money on whatever freshly powdercoated piece of metal that comes from your favorite vendor? But when the conversatin goes the other way, and numerous educated and/or experienced members tell you it doesnt provide any benefits you now all of a sudden become data hounds...and you must have numbers and quantifiable results backing up all claims.......if theres one thing more annoying than ignorance its hypocracy.

- I don't have any favorite vendor, they are all in business to get your money. I shop for the one I feel gives best results for the dollar. Which may include asking people to show thier results, or results they have seen/read.

- I have never bought any product I don't believe in. The only "chassis" product I have ever owned has been a set of traction bars, which work in the exact manor intended, and I didn't even pay for them.

- not all the members above have shown that they educated or experienced, at least not to me.

- this may sound odd now...but you and others proven to me(probably by the start of the second page) that most strut bars on the market, for most cars they are offed for, have no chance of improved handling.

-I thought of a simple test to see if a strut bar has any chance of helping...with it off the vehicle, try flexing it by hand against the ground. flex=no help handling forces are far greater than most people can exert.

-possibly more to follow
