Rear differential brace Steeda, Livernois, ID speed

Help me decide. While they're very similar I'm torn. Help me choose

ID Speed over both of those. Don’t fall for the “bigger is better” hype.

Didn't even have them on the list. Now you gave me more options LOL Thank you for that

The Livernois one at least looks good, Steeda one sucks. What exactly makes the Livernois unit inferior to the ID-Speed?

I’ve said a thousand times these double braces aren’t needed. There’s no reason to lock the rear diff down solid on a daily driver. The ID Speed brace was actually engineered to work like a 4 bolt car.

You're swaying me more and more to the ID Speed. Not that its a bad thing LOL

What about on a 2-bolt rear subframe car?

I like the JXB inserts for 4 bolt cars…they do work and do exactly what they claim. Unfortunately I have some NVH increase and removed them but many haven’t had that experience.

Do you think they’ll do the job alone without a diff brace with stopping the bushing from failing? I remember Tyler’s old car (which was a 2-bolt) bushing failed after quite a few launches he does.

He had issues after literally thousands of launches. Bushing failures on 4 bolt cars can be counted on half of one hand. Mine looked perfect at over 110K when I installed the JXB inserts.

I have the Steeda. I actually don't have it connected because of NVH issues. Although it may not be common to the Steeda as I am sure there would be more posts about it. I get a very noticeable humming noise that seems to be transmitting from either the rear diff pinion or carrier bearings. Not noticable without the brace though and thus not enough for Ford techs to replicate it.

We’ve had a lot of very satisfied customers with this upgrade—while I can’t share exact sales numbers, I can say the response has been outstanding since we introduced it. I’m happy to help you with a Steeda unit and can offer preferred forum pricing. Feel free to reach out to me directly at [email protected].
