DETAILS

Hardrace Pillow Ball RC Tie Rod End for Rally Lifted Suspension Fits Most Subaru Models | Adjustable Geometry Correction | Steering Upgrade

Overview

The Hardrace Pillow Ball RC Tie Rod End is a precision-engineered steering component designed specifically for Subaru models equipped with rally lifted suspension setups. When a Subaru’s suspension is lifted or lowered, the steering tie rod angle changes, causing unwanted toe changes during suspension travel, commonly known as bumpsteer. This product addresses that issue by relocating the tie rod end ball joint pivot point, restoring the steering geometry closer to factory specifications for improved control and response.

Manufactured with a high-quality pillow ball joint, this tie rod end offers a more direct and responsive steering feel while enduring the rigorous loads encountered in lifted or rally-style driving conditions. Its adjustable design allows fine-tuning of the rod height using spacers, accommodating various ride heights and ensuring optimal alignment and steering precision. Hardrace’s focus on durability and performance makes this tie rod end a reliable upgrade for Subaru enthusiasts who demand both function and longevity.

By correcting steering geometry on lifted Subaru models, this tie rod end enhances driver confidence and vehicle stability, especially on uneven or off-road terrain. The direct bolt-on design integrates seamlessly with OEM components, making it a practical and effective solution for owners looking to maintain proper steering dynamics after suspension modifications. Whether you drive a WRX, STI, Forester, or BRZ with lifted suspension, this component helps preserve the Subaru driving experience with improved steering accuracy and feedback.
