● Mounting parts: Floor crossbar, lower arm bar

There is already a lower arm bar on the rear side, and then a floor crossbar.
This time it is an impression with a floor crossbar.
I thought that the floor crossbar was mainly used to prevent scintillation under heavy load, so I thought that I could not tell the difference when driving in the city, but when I turned left at the intersection on the way back, a sense of unity at the rear was born. Rather, the rear felt like a lump.This also created the feeling that the wheelbase was shortened.

And I realized again that until now, the first half and the second half of the car body were moving separately like a two-car train.
I'm sure the cornering limit has risen.
When I go down the U-shaped slope of the parking lot, I feel that the rear has a lumpy feeling and the bending has decreased.
I thought that it wouldn't change much at low speed and tight cornering at the interchange, but I felt that it was tightened with a sense of unity on the rear side and a sense of security increased.
At high-speed corners, the fluffy shaking that I felt before mounting eliminated the fear of not knowing when to start, and the feeling of ground contact on the rear side became tighter.
It is recommended to install the floor crossbar at the same time as the strut tower bar in terms of front and rear balance, but in the case of a wagon, the rigidity on the rear side is particularly weak, so the front and rear balance is rather when the floor crossbar is attached. I even think it's taken.
Fortunately, it was too hard to feel rugged due to the installation, and the sense of unity of the car body is a comfortable feeling even when cruising at midnight.
Even without the center crossbar and front strut tower bar, this feels good enough for now, so it's cost-effective.
