I got the UR strut bar on top of my stock sport strut bar (two strut bars ftw! lol), front lower bar, and rear lower bar. I'm pretty content with how the handling is now, major improvement.

 

According to some people complaining about sway bar mount welds breaking I would think these (upper and lower bars) would be more important to have before upgrading the sway bars right? Since there would probably be less stress on the rest of the BMW chassis itself correct?

 

is this topic stil alive?

 

I sold my car many years ago so what do you need to know?

 

hey. thanks for the reply. I was looking to ask for a feedback on your bar and if somebody here or you recommend

the this version compared to yours?

 

My Engine was straight 6 not V8 so my bar will not fit this V8 engine type

 

so you say that type is dedicated to V8/V10 only?

 

yes that's right
Here is my UR tower bar on my 525i

 

If you mod sway bars or suspension best to install a tower bar to stiffen the top part of the car.
Think of it this way. If you look at the car from the front and do not install the tower bar, it will be a U shape and the top will move a lot and will crack the welds. If install a tower bar then it will be a box shape which will not have much movements and stronger.

 

yes. that is what I am planning. I was not sure if I can fit that from the V8 as it looks 1 piece compared to piece you have in the pic (stock bar plus UR). Also I see they have some bigger model for the straight 6 engine.....so you were happy with this bar!?
