If you have substantially lowered your vehicle chances are you have introduced bump steer. What is bump steer? Bump Steer is changes in toe caused by suspension movement.

Every car has bump steer, however when you lower the vehicle you increase the amount of bump steer that occurs, if this becomes excessive you will begin to notice some unwanted vehicle driving characteristics.

When you turn your steering wheel you are essentially changing the toe of the wheels to turn the vehicle. Excessive bump steer is undesireable because it introduces unwanted steering inputs which means the suspension is steering the car instead of the driver.

If your car is lowered and has tracking issues and less predictable steering behavior, you need a bump steer kit.

Our LSR Bump Steer Kit will allow you to correct your bump steer geometry and can do so without requiring you to drill or modify your vehicle spindle.

In addition, our bump steer kit makes a great service replacement for your worn out, high mileage outer tie rods even if you do not have excessive bump steer issues.

Pick up a bump steer kit today and refresh your outer tie rods and improve your steering.

I have PFadt radius rod spherical bush and the front trailing arm spherical bush as well that took care of unwanted steering issues but is this kit still stiffer than the stock piece it replaces.

This kit is going to be stiffer than a factory style tie rod end. But the point of this kit is to readjust the angle of the tie rod ends to eliminate bumpsteer. When you lower your car you change the steering geometry and this kit will allow you to put it back in line.

Thanks!

Do you have to get an alignment after install?
