Brace Rear Differential PPF RoadsterSport Aftermarket New 2001-2005 NB Mazda Miata
New RoadsterSport Rear Differential PPF Brace for Late NB Mazda Miata. The RoadsterSport PPF brace is designed to reduce slop int he transmission by bracing the power plant frame or PPF against the rear subframe. This brace will also reduce wheel hop and improve traction. The RoadsterSport PPF brace is made from ultra light honeycomb aluminum for maximum strength and powder coated for durability. You may notice more gear whine due to the isolation effects of the factory bushings being negated by the brace. Made in the USA. Part number 61-2404. Fits 2001-2005.
INSTALL NOTES:
The challenge with install of this brace is it is made for a 'perfect' Miata, and just about every Miata these days with 20+ years on them isn't as straight as they used to be, and they have all had the PPF disconnected at one point or another for things like clutch service, etc. so things are not aligned quite as they were from the factory. So in fact, first attempt at test fitting the brace is shows how far off the car is. So on some cars install is easy, but on many cars install requires that you loosen all bolts and also loosen the PPF at both ends and slightly loosen the differential, get the brace installed loosely, and then slowly snug up all the bolts evenly. You'll end up with a car that is back much closer to how it's supposed to be.
Hardware: Kits come with two spacers and four bolts. The spacers go between the brace and the rear subframe mounting points. For the four bolts, two are fine thread and two are coarse thread. 1999-2000 Miata will use the coarse thread bolts, and 2001-2005 Miatas will use the fine thread bolts.
