Do the later Duster engine bay braces that go from the cowl/firewall to the fender do much? Was thinking about making a set fit my 71'

I had a set on my 75 duster and none on my 70....I think they look cool...Mopar put them on their for a reason, must of thought over time the front end would sag and start pulling apart at the fire wall????Makes sense I guess..I like em....probably someone on hee has some...They are different lenght from one side to the other,,,I think the pass side in longer.

I know the theory behind them just wondering if they do the job?
Not looking for miricles but after watching the body flex video on XV motorsports website I was thinking for the price of the stock bars if they did much of anything it was worth it.

They may do some good. I would think they would work better if they went to the shock towers though. A set of snout bars that tie in the shock towers and a motor plate would be the beast way to go. "IMO"
Make a set and install them. Can't hurt anything. Besides they do look kinda' cool.

I agree with Burntorange. Those puny bolts as shown in the pics aren't going to hold much. To be truly effective, they need to tie in to the shock towers.
