It goes over the engine, and applies itself on the strut towers.

I just told you what it does, geek

I was asking if i was right about this "To split the load on the shocks? " basically. Yes, thank you. You confirmed that it goes over the engine and attatches to the strut towers.

the sole purpose for a strut bar is purely structural rigidity, it has nothing to do with shocks. but, I guess since it does stiffen the chassis I would hypothesis it probably does cause some sort of an effect on shock wear.

sorry I missunderstood what you were questioning.
