Reinforcement kit for front sway bar mount, ND
ND Miatas can actually rip their sway bar mounts off the subframe under hard cornering with uprated sway bars. The fix is a new subframe. That's an expensive repair!
We worked with Paco Motorsports to bring this solution to market. They're a simple bolt-on upgrade with no drilling that will increase the strength of your sway bar mounts dramatically. Made of powdercoated steel and less than a pound of extra mass on the nose of the car, they're cheap insurance. Easy to install whether you're doing a sway bar swap or not. Works with all sway bars that have at least 10mm clearance radially from the center of the lower stud holding the sway bar bracket - it would be unusual to have a fitment issue, but it's possible if you have an especially unique setup.
So when do you need this kit? The conservative answer is "when you upgrade to stiffer sway bars." The longer answer is that if you have stiffer springs (like our FM springs), you'll probably be fine with the stock stuff. But why risk it?
