Had anyond put a rear anti roll bar, or strut brace, or any other brace on their kicks? I have a 2021 sr and thinking about it, for less roll in the corners, wondering if any experience out there and how we're the results?
The Nissan Kicks is a crossover and has the highest clearance compared to any other crossover so it makes sense to want to install an ARB (anti-roll bar). Assuming you own a Nissan Kicks in the United States (P15) the installation of a rear ARB is not possible. The Nissan Kicks uses an independent suspension system in the front and a semi-independent suspension system in the rear. For the rear Nissan decided to install (probably for cost reasons) a Torsion Beam Suspension with a twist-beam (because the twist-beam can somewhat twist it makes the rear suspension semi-independent.) I included an image for reference (were it says front assume for kicks it says rear). So from my understanding, I don't believe you could install a rear ARB. But the front does use an independent suspension system so you can definitely if you want to upgrade the front ARB to a better after-market part (talk to a local mechanic if possible.) In terms of Strut Brace or any Brace the Nissan Kicks might have the ability for installation and might not; I'm assuming not but I would need to look more into it for a definitive answer.
If you DO NOT want to void your suspension warranty DO NOT install any aftermarket ARB
