Why do you need this.
The original front suspension from the factory is a compromise designed primarily for street use and comfortable driving characteristics. Soft rubber bushings often make steering feel fuzzy/sloppy, and this effect only gets worse under heavy cornering and braking loads. In our kits, all flex is eliminated through the use of kingpins (rod ends), which greatly improves the sporty driving feel.
When you lower your car, the roll center deteriorates. Our kit can offset this negative effect by adding knuckle height and reducing suspension roll.
For track use, extra caster is usually desired because it gives more camber gain in corners. Our track rods can be made shorter, increasing caster.
Adding caster (or changing other geometry properties) often comes with a drawback: more bump steer. Our track rods ánd all other arms have 7-position adjustment for a very wide range, so you can adjust everything from standard height to highly lowered.
With these components you get a sharp, precise and direct steering feel with full adjustability to your needs.
