Description
Hardrace Front Strut Brace for Volvo S60 D3/D4/T5 (2010-2018) and Volvo V60 D2/D3/D4 (2010-Present) – Sharper Steering, Stiffer Front End
Under hard cornering the front strut towers flex, which blurs steering feel and lets the suspension geometry shift. This Hardrace front strut brace ties them together, so the front end stays stiff and the steering stays sharp and precise.
It bolts to existing mounting points with no cutting or drilling.
It suits the Volvo S60 D3/D4/T5 (2010-2018) and Volvo V60 D2/D3/D4 (2010-Present).

Upgrade Further
Do I need an alignment?
No. The brace does not change the suspension geometry.
Will it fit under the bonnet?
Yes, it is designed to fit under the standard bonnet on the listed models. Check clearance around any aftermarket intake or engine parts.
Will it make the ride harsher?
No. A brace stiffens the chassis, not the suspension, so the ride comfort is largely unchanged.
Can I fit it with other braces?
Yes. Combining front, middle and rear braces stiffens more of the chassis for an even tighter feel.
Will it fit my car?
It is listed for the models in the Fitment section. If your car has a different engine, drive layout or market spec, check with us before ordering.
Is it road legal?
Yes, it is a bolt-on part for road and track use. Tell your insurer about any modifications.
