Torque control brace for a differential housing mounted in an independent suspension vehicle

A brace for controlling torque of a differential housing, which encases a differential, mounted in a vehicle having independent suspension, comprising:

• an upper frame portion, the upper frame portion including an upper inner perimetral surface configured to contact the differential housing;
• a mounting portion positioned below and connectedly extending from the upper frame portion, the mounting portion including a pair of legs connected to, and extending downward from, each of a left side and a right side of the upper frame portion, wherein the mounting portion is secured to a frame or cross-member of the vehicle and cooperates with the upper frame portion to restrain the differential housing from twisting;
• and
• a lower frame portion that is separable from the upper frame portion, the lower frame portion including a lower inner perimetral surface, wherein the lower inner perimetral surface and the upper inner perimetral surface of the upper frame portion together form an inner perimetral surface, whereby the upper inner perimetral surface of the upper frame portion and the lower inner perimetral surface of the lower frame portion in an installed position cooperate to surround and restrain the differential housing, thereby preventing twisting of the differential housing, wherein the pair of legs are a pair of threaded legs, whereby the brace is secured to the frame or cross-member of the vehicle via the pair of threaded legs.
