For Porsche 914
- Correct your geometry and suspension travel
- We offer a variety of strut configurations and strut modification services.
Precision Steering Under Pressure
Our top-performing bump steer solution is super strong and provides the sharpest, most predictable steering response. It eliminates steering knuckle twist induced toe steer and can be used on raised/lowered spindles of any height.
Double steering knuckle – Holds tie rod end between two steering knuckles to eliminate knuckle flex regardless of bump steer spacer length.
Long bump steer spacers (required with raised spindles) place bending loads that twist stock steering knuckles.
Twist causes undesired toe steer so a second steering knuckle is welded to the strut body to prevent the twist.
Bump steer adjustable – allows massive bump steer adjustment range in .125 inch increments. Double shear mounting provides solid support for even the longest bump steer spacing.
Rod End – Weather sealed precision rods ends included work with regular turbo tie rods. Included boots to seal out dirt and and water for extended life.
Our purpose-made rod ends are extra long to ensure proper threaded engagement with standard turbo tie rods.
Spindle height – Kits available for 19mm, 30mm, 40mm spindle height. Kits are easily modified for use with essentially any spindle height.
