Hi all! Picked up a 2018 RT AWD a while back and I was looking at getting one of these. Are they worth it? Any reviews?

11-20 Durango Grand Cherokee Front Strut Tower Brace Chrome Molly Steel Silver | eBay

This unit works by tying the two strut pillar towers together and reinforces the connection by bracing them When your vehicle corners, the strut bar distributes the cornering load across each strut tower thereby reducing chassis flex and keeping the car level.

Yes worth it! Taller vehicle with higher suspension is always susceptible to body roll. Got mine off eBay. Here is my install:

Thanks for the responses! I know they make a difference, but I was wondering if anyone knew about that brand. Kinda looks like Mopar or DC Sports. Other option is GG, and Black Ops is way too expensive.

No problems but my case is slightly different. Fitment would be the same for a Durango.

I've got a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Same construction under the hood as a Durango. I have Factory Quadra Air Suspension you can see the connections in the middle of the strut towers. The brace on mine has one bar that's elevated and shaped to clear the drivers side air suspension connection. The standard brace has both bars shaped the same on both ends. Otherwise it's the same mounting as a Durango. Remove two nut/washers on each strut tower, place brace on towers, install nuts and torque down to 21 ft-lbs. Took 10 minutes total.

This bar and the the standard one without the elevated bend both fit the Durango.
