This kit delivers unrivalled steering angles and precision control, thanks to its innovative rack relocation. The Pro Kit's debut on Josiah's C6 Corvette led to a spectacular victory, winning both the first competitive event and the high-roller series championship on its first outing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA normal coilover will contact the upper control arm where the spring passes through the arm. This kit has been tested with both BC Racing and Feal coilovers, these 2 coilovers work when installed inverted (with the spring at the bottom of the coilover instead of the top). The upper control arm is designed this way to maximize steering angle, and it is necessary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe OEM steering shaft firewall boot must be removed, and the firewall needs a slight notch in it. The reason is the BMW steering rack is narrower, and the steering shaft angle increases towards the center of the car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe BMW steering rack also requires the factory steering rack giubo. We have machined an adapter to connect to the E46 giubo. The giubo comes with a rubber dampener installed. This can be run as is, or the rubber damper can be drilled out, and the 2 halves of the giubo bolted together. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustability:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eOur innovative lower control arm\/lollipop design introduces on-car fine-tuning for caster, a unique feature not found in other kits.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 72 degrees of lead and trail wheel angle, made possible only by our rack relocation design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Steering Dynamics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tailored for lightning-fast transitions and effortless control, this kit endows your Corvette with the quickest self-steer capabilities Josiah has ever experienced, especially when combined with the rear grip kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrip:\u003c\/strong\u003e T\u003cspan\u003ehe speed of a drift is determined by how well the front can guide the rear; to do this, you need grip.

On Josiah's car, he uses the silver\/grey tag rack. The racks location uses a unique bracket that fixates it into the factory leaf spring pocket of the subframe. Mounting it here has relocated the steering rack 4.75” back and 5.5” down. A dramatic move but a very necessary one, as the factory C6 racks are in front of the engine's crank pulley. The factory rack is compromised at high angle and will often result in wrecking the rack's seals within a year of competitive driving. This kit resolves this problem by aligning the forces and keeping them linear with the steering rack. The steering rack relocation comes with a rack adaptor to connect it to the factory steering column. The only modification required is that the left side header will need to be custom-made or modified to clear the new steering wheel shaft location. Keep this in mind when considering this angle kit. The subframe will also need a couple of spots ground for the E46 power steering lines and rack fitment (these are minor modifications).\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoints:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses Chromoly Heim joints and spherical bearings with self-lubricating nylon races. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable, Lightweight \u0026amp; Reliable:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made from high-strength alloy steel and aluminum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Installation requires minor modifications to the subframe and potentially to the left side header to accommodate the new steering wheel shaft location.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote: \u003c\/strong\u003eWheel Bearing not included, calipers and pads not included. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orders require 3-4 weeks for fabrication before shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"C6 PRO KIT GUIDE\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0049\/8044\/1155\/files\/C6_Pro_car_Angle_kit_installation_guide_a1838893-7ea5-45d3-84ea-501d0cd2999a.pdf?v=1711560875\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eInstallation Manual\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose FDF?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDriver-inspired designs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our products feature innovative, driver-inspired designs tailored for performance and style.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-quality materials:\u003c\/strong\u003e We use only high-strength alloys to ensure the durability and superior quality of our products.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in North America:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our products are proudly made in-house in North America, ensuring exceptional craftsmanship and reliability.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"FDF Raceshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46507324997819,"sku":"FDF-C06-PRO-135","price":3572.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/9556\/2683\/files\/corvetteprofrontkit.jpg?v=1762536012","url":"https:\/\/drifthq.com\/products\/fdf-c6-corvette-pro-angle-kit-fdf-new","provider":"Drift HQ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
