"I am very happy with your front axle steering and suspension
kit! The car is much easier to drive. You can use the kurbs without
problems. The steering afford is much less than before. The tyres do
have a better wear pattern because of the added camber in
corners."
Fits all 105/115 cars. Bolt on kit except for drilling steering knuckle and
setting correct ride height. This kit combines our Spherical Rod End Steering
Kit and Spherical Lower Ball Joint to produce the ultimate in desirable handling
characteristics: Improved bump steer, camber gain and lower roll center. The
adapters are CNC Macined from 4130 steel alloy. Spacers furnished with this kit
are specifically designed to reduce bump steer numbers to an acceptable range.
Further refinements can be achieved by adding or subtracting spacers as
necessary.
STEERING. This spherical rod end conversion kit eliminates sloppy tie rod
ends, corrects bump steer and vastly improves steering response. These high
quality rod ends eliminate the old ball joint type tie rod end compliance that
prevents crisp turn in. Spherical rod ends also improve top end performance by
eliminating toe out on the straights cause by compliance in the standard tie rod
ends.
LOWER BALL JOINT. This spherical bearing replacement eliminates the gross
amount of compliance of the old Alfa ball joint. The adaptor is CNC Machined
from 4140 steel alloy. When installed it raises the spindle 1.2", lowers the car
by the same amount and lowers the roll center of the front end. It also
effectively lengthens the steering knuckle by 1.2" and increases the angle of
the upper arm the same as the old knuckle risers. This increased angle of the
upper arm induces camber gain needed to offset the loss of camber due to roll
when cornering. The lower tapered hole in the steering knuckle must be drilled
out to 5/8" to install this part. Spring shims may be necessary to restore
specified ride height. Go to paulspruell.com for more info and
installed pictures.
UPGRADE to GTA track rod. For an
additional $50.00 you can substitute our lowered track rod, that clears the
deeper GTA oil pan. Also this bent rod allows engine/gearbox
removal with out removing track rod.
