Will an S550 Strut Tower Brace fit on an S650?

[89Trooper]

I have talked to some that say it should fit, but has anybody actually done this?

I really liked this one on my 2015 GT and want to get it again for my 2024 GT (but it says it won't fit). Stupid me didn't take it off before trading it in.

But then this one says it fits 2015-2024:

Ford Performance Strut Tower Brace (2015-2024 Mustangs) - M-20201-MA (lethalperformance.com)

Thanks!

If you really want a brace that works, get the one from Lethal that ties the strut towers into the cowl, much stronger/stiffer

@89Trooper and @Neggytive ...... Not sure if an S550 strut brace will fit an S650 but you can certainly get (and I highly recommend you do) a strut brace for your 2024 from any Ford dealer for a decent price and the addition of that WILL tie in to the two braces that are already there from the cowling/firewall to the towers. The new strut brace will fit perfectly with them. I'm 99% positive you'll need new nuts for the tower studs as I think they are still one use and be sure to torque them in two stages to avoid stretching/twisting the tower studs.

If Ford says it fits, get the FP brace that you posted from Lethal.

Thanks for the replies! I'm definitely getting a strut tower brace, and I'm definitely getting the cowl brace (and brand new nuts). So, I will have the rigidity needed.

My question is really regarding the looks. I know some (many?) will disagree, but I love the look of the aluminum rims on the black car. Similarly, I think the silver brace (in my first link above) will look better than the black one.

That's why I'd love to know for sure that it will fit.

If it don’t fit you could just return it.

If it don’t fit you could just return it.

Or sell it over on 6G

you could take the black brace and paint it or send it out to be powder coated to the color of your choice

S550 brace will absolutely fit, I got a takeoff here at the dealership and it dropped right into place. I did need 2 additional nuts for the empty studs.

Awesome! Thank you!
