The primary functions of the strut rod are to limit
fore/aft movement of the lower control arm and to provide a means of
fine tuning the amount of caster in the alignment. We have addressed
this using modern materials and manufacturing techniques; developing a
system that offers predictable handling and adjustability without
shortening the original strut rod length.
Our newly redesigned strut rod makes improvements in the
areas of performance, serviceability, and ease of installation. The key to
these refinements is our billet concentric pivot assembly; the first of its
kind. A set of uniquely mounted, pre-loaded Delrin bushings move the pivot
point to an improved location increasing the effective length of the lower
arm assembly and improving the axis angle. The net result is reduced caster
change during braking and cornering, leaving you with not only a better
handling vehicle but one that affords driver comfort as well.
Reliable, long lasting performance from any vehicle system
requires high quality components and the ability to service them for regular
maintenance. The pivot assembly can be easily lubricated to further increase
the low friction properties of the Delrin bushings. Should the bushings
begin to wear over their lifespan a quick adjustment of the threaded
retaining nut and performance is restored to like new conditions.
Each component is manufactured in-house utilizing our
state of the art CNC multi-axis mills, sheet metal lasers, and robotic spray
arc welders, resulting in unmatched production accuracy. You can purchase
with confidence, knowing that the product will install easily on its
intended application.
