Monte Carlo Bars

What is a monte carlo bar? Why buy one?

A Monte Carlo bar is a stiffening device developed by motorsport’s legend Carroll Shelby to help give his Mustangs a leg up on the race track. The bar runs between the tops of the shock mounts, connecting them together and forming a crucial link that greatly improves chassis stiffness, reduces flex, and helps the suspension to better do its job. By maintaining proper suspension geometry you gain more precise steering feel and improved handling characteristics which can drop valuable seconds from your lap times and make your car much more pleasurable to drive on the street. This simple yet effective device is one of the best performance bargains you will find.

Why To Buy?:

Chassis strength is crucial for vehicle handling dynamics. Any flex or twisting in the chassis means that the suspension cannot properly do its job, and it can lead to detrimental and unpredictable handling characteristics. One way to solidify your suspension pickup points and add rigidity to the chassis is with the addition of monte carlo bars. Aftermarket monte carlo bars will improve suspension feel and steering response to make your ride handle like a dream.
