TB Performance C Pillar Brace

2011–2016 Scion tC

Part #: TB-CBR-TC2

Overview

The TB Performance C Pillar Brace is a precision-engineered suspension upgrade designed specifically for the 2011 to 2016 Scion tC (tC2). This bolt-on brace addresses a known weak point in the tC’s chassis—the C pillar area—which can negatively impact handling and cause annoying creaking noises from the moon roof. By reinforcing this critical structural area, the brace improves rear-end traction and overall vehicle stability, delivering a more confident and connected driving experience.

Ideal for enthusiasts seeking enhanced cornering performance and a quieter cabin, the TB Performance C Pillar Brace offers a straightforward solution that installs in under 10 minutes without any permanent modifications.

• Improves handling by stiffening the rear suspension mounting points
• Increases rear-end traction for better grip during acceleration and cornering
• Reduces moon roof creaking and rattling for a quieter ride
• Double adjustable design allows fine-tuning of suspension performance
• Lightweight yet strong tube steel construction
• Durable black powder coat finish resists corrosion and wear
• Hand MIG welded for superior strength and quality control
• Proudly manufactured in the USA
• Simple bolt-on installation with no drilling or cutting required

Construction & Design

The TB Performance C Pillar Brace is crafted from high-quality tube steel, chosen for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio. Each brace is hand MIG welded in the USA, ensuring precise welds and consistent build quality. The black powder coat finish not only provides a sleek appearance but also protects the brace from rust and environmental damage, extending its lifespan.

The double adjustable design allows drivers to tailor the brace’s stiffness to their specific driving style and suspension setup, making it a versatile upgrade for both street and track use.

Performance & Sound

By reinforcing the C pillar area, this brace significantly reduces chassis flex that can lead to unpredictable handling characteristics. The improved rigidity enhances rear traction, especially during aggressive cornering and acceleration, resulting in a more planted and responsive feel. Additionally, the brace minimizes moon roof creaking and rattling noises, improving cabin comfort and reducing distractions.

Installation & Fitment

Installation is straightforward and can be completed in less than 10 minutes using basic hand tools. The brace bolts directly to existing mounting points on the 2011–2016 Scion tC chassis, requiring no drilling, cutting, or permanent modifications. This makes it an ideal upgrade for enthusiasts who want improved performance without compromising factory integrity or resale value.
