OVERVIEW
The FDF Raceshop Rigid Tie Rod is engineered specifically to replace or service your FDF Mantis Angle Kit setup. Machined from premium 7075 aluminum, these tie rods offer a massive step up in steering rigidity and feedback compared to thin factory steel units.
Key Features:
-
Ultra-Rigid Steering Response: The high-clearance, thick-diameter 7075 aluminum construction is incredibly stiff. By eliminating the flex commonly found in thin steel tie rods, this upgrade significantly sharpens steering feel, predictability, and overall front-end handling.
-
Machined Rack-Saver Fail Point: Designed with worst-case scenarios in mind. Each tie rod features a precision-machined mechanical fail point. In the event of a hard track side impact or collision, the tie rod will sacrifice itself and break cleanly, isolating the energy to save your expensive steering rack from snapping or bending.
-
Stronger Yet Lighter: Utilizing 7075 aluminum yields a structural yield strength that surpasses standard mild steel while dramatically cutting down unsprung weight.
What's Included:
- (1) Replacement Rigid Tie Rod
