Mercedes A-Series - Front Strut Bar

Mercedes-Benz W176 Front Strut Brace

The MOB Engineering Mercedes-Benz W176 Front Strut Brace is developed to connect the front suspension strut towers, helping reduce chassis flex and improve structural rigidity at the front of the vehicle.

During performance and track driving, significant forces are transferred through the front suspension towers under hard braking, high cornering loads, and rapid direction changes. By limiting relative movement between the left and right strut towers, the brace helps the front end of the chassis work as a more rigid and connected structure.

This is designed to contribute to:

• Sharper and more direct steering response
• A more controlled front-end feel during corner entry
• More stable chassis behaviour during quick direction changes
• Reduced flex around the front strut tower area
• A more rigid platform for the suspension to operate from

Hybrid Steel & Aluminium Construction

The strut tower mounting sections are manufactured from steel, while the main cross section is made from aluminium.

This hybrid construction provides high strength at the mounting points while helping reduce unnecessary weight through the aluminium centre section.

The result is a balanced combination of rigidity, durability, and weight.

Performance & Track-Focused Design

The brace is developed for drivers looking for a more direct and connected chassis response.

It helps improve front-end rigidity during daily driving while providing additional support under the higher loads generated during spirited and track use.

Custom Powder Coating

Each strut brace is finished with a durable electrostatic powder coating.

The product can be supplied in a custom colour of your choice, allowing it to match your engine bay, exterior colour, or overall vehicle build theme.
