Cusco 195570A Type 40D Strut Bar - D-Shape High-Tension Aluminum Strut Tower Brace

The Cusco 195570A Type 40D Strut Bar is a front strut tower brace engineered from high-tension aluminum with a 40mm D-shaped cross-section and a polished center bar finish. Unlike the standard Cusco Type 40, which uses a full circular tube, the Type 40D's flat-sided D profile delivers a slimmer overall footprint — making it the ideal choice for engine bays with tight clearance constraints where a round-tube bar simply won't fit.

The D-shaped geometry is not just a packaging solution — the 40mm non-circular diameter provides excellent torsional rigidity, effectively resisting chassis flex and improving front-end stability during spirited driving. By tying the two front strut towers together, the bar sharpens turn-in response and reduces body flex through corners.

Key Features:

• 40mm D-shaped high-tension aluminum center bar with polished finish
• Titanium gray steel end plate brackets for precise, application-specific fitment
• Slimmer profile than the standard Type 40 — designed for tighter engine bay clearances
• Improves chassis rigidity, front-end stability, and cornering turn-in response
• 2-point bolt-on design — installs in minutes with common hand tools
• Includes all necessary mounting hardware
• Made in Japan by Cusco (a division of Carrosser Co., Ltd.)

The Cusco Type 40D is a direct bolt-on upgrade requiring no cutting or modification, making it a practical performance enhancement for both street and track use. All required installation hardware is included.
