Rear Strut Brace to fix flexing - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

djliquidsteele · 03-15-2013, 10:59 AM

I have installed RCE springs and sways, Whiteline cross member insert, rear camber bushings, front camber bolts. When cornering hard or pulling out of my driveway, i can hear a bit of creaking from the rear trunk area. Will a rear strut tower brace fix this?

Thanks,

Sean

What he said. Lithium Grease should fix it.

Might be this as the previous poster was mentioning ^

I had this problem and a squirt of some motorcycle chain lube silenced it so far.
