New Ford Performance B-Bow & C-Bow Brace Kit

[F-Spot]

I know this has been talked about, but I can’t find anything with this search… has anyone adapted this to fit a two door? Either of them, B or C brace…

highly doubt it will fit 2 doors...the rear roll bars are longer and extend further from the crossbar that the brace plate attaches to.

Did you ever install on your 2025? Wondering how it went with the rear reading light change

The kit fits no problem on a 2025. As previously mentioned you do loose one of the rear passenger lights that was added in 2025 as the trim piece in the kit for the rear C-brace only has one light as on pre 2025 MY but the light units are the same and you just have to push out of the way/tie up the extra pigtail that was added on the harness for the second light.

Yep I already installed. I also put a mabett dome light in for more lighting.

Does the B-Bow help a lot or I should be fine with only the C-Bow?

I was pretty sure the B Bow was just snake oil. A member on here had one for a great price local to me. I picked it up and installed the brace.

I can say it was not snake oil and it indeed stiffens the body up and I have less squeaks and rattles.

Torsional stiffness of a u-channel and a box beam are vastly different. Anything you can do to approach a box beam is a big help. The span from front windshield to rear bumper is large on 4 doors. The B brace will help ensure box beam like stiffness in the mid section.

Just installed the B & C Bow Brace kit. It reduced and eliminated a lot of squeaks and rattles.

If you are undecided: go for it!

If you find sourcw for sqieaks and rattles from beace please share. Im about to strip the plastic covwrs off with cutter since cand figure out how to unsnap, if even possible. Ford warranty is in agreemebt with this approach since second c brace also squeaks and they dont want to.send a third.

I think he is saying the adding the b and c brace reduced squeaks and rattles.

I'm not sure what you are saying here - do you have the b and c brace and you have rattles?

The Ford C Brace eventually develops some squeaks and rattles...at least without any kind of B brace. I only have the C brace and I also have some squeaks and rattles now. I can grab the brace section and shake it and it has slight movement. The mounting plates don't move at all, but the brace section does.

Maybe use some blue thread locker?
