Rear differential brace

[2020FordRaptor]

Why is the ID Speed brace better? Because it costs more? Because it’s over engineered? I do agree it's very nice but my point is that no one is having diff. or bolt breakage failures (or at least that I have heard of or read) with the use of any of the aftermarket diff. braces. You can argue certain braces prevent certain articulation or twist of the diff., but again, no one is having failures with any type of added brace. I have the AWR on my ST and I tow at times to the very max GVW & GCWR in hilly mountains. Absolutely no issues what so ever. IMO, any diff brace is a good piece of mind upgrade.

Yes it does cost more, no it is not over engineered, it is properly engineered. Two people already have had their diff bolt still snap with AWR. The AWR because it is a one side support, puts more stress on the one bolt then other supports, because it is causing a torsional affect on the rear differential. Sure, for most people it may be adequate, but there is no doubt the ID-Speed is better designed and protects the bolt more adequately.
