  • Whish brand of STB???

    Looking to get a STB, but which brand and what kind . Does it make a difference if it's two point or three point? BMR has the cheapest, but is the quality good? I was brought up on the concept of "You get what you pay for."

    Could I get some recommendations PLEEEASE! :D

    You can get a lot of info from previous posts by using the search feature on the board here... that's what I did and decided to go with BMR. Their group purchase is over, but I think they are still the cheapest... take a look at some of the other posts and see what you think.

      I ordered my STB from BMR yesterday, so I'll let ya'll know the results when I get it. All i've been hearing is positive feedbacks from BMR, so I went for it.

        Please, do a search, this has come up before. I don't recommend a 3 point, it can crack your windshield easily. A BMR 2 point will be about the best you can buy for the money, I absolutely love mine!

              I have the LG Motorsports 3-point and have never had any problems with the windshield cracking. It's an awesome brace and I would recommend it highly.

                Thanx everyone for the advice. I am plannign on ordering the BMR handling package. Includes the STB, SFC, and panhard rod. Cheaper than buying each seperately.

                Thanx again.

                  I used to have the Hotchkis 2 point brace and recently switched to the LG Motorsports 3 point...honestly, there is a pretty good difference. Also, I installed a BMR brace on a '99 WS6 and the owner commented on how much it helped.

                  PS - the Hotchkis one is for sale if anyone is interested.

                      GMS or Granatelli Motorsports also offers a 2 and 3 point STB. You can locate them at

                          You can't go wrong with the BMR brace. Great product for the money.
