Bump Geometry Correction by Elephant Racing
Fitment: ’95-’98 993 w/o RS wheel carriers

 

Lowered cars with non-RS wheel carriers suffer from bump steer and will benefit from bump geometry correction.

Bump steer is a change in toe due to vertical movement of the wheel, such as when driving over a bump. The toe change causes the car to turn, and the driver needs to constantly correct for this to maintain a steady trajectory. This makes the car a handful to drive, especially over bumpy road surfaces.

Bump correction is achieved by moving the tie rod end pivot about 10mm closer to the steering knuckle as compared to the stock tie rod end. This changes the angle of the tie rod to produce the bump geometry correction.

 

No Need To Convert Wheel Carriers
This Bump Steer Correcting Tie Rod kit provides bump geometry correction with the standard C2/C4 wheel carriers. It is not necessary to convert the wheel carriers to RS type to correct for bump steer when using our kit.

  • Corrects for bump steer
  • Eliminates rubber inner-joint
  • Enhanced driving precision
  • Easier and more cost effective than RS wheel carrier conversion

These Elephant Racing bump steer tie rods also eliminate the compliant rubber inner-joint found in the factory 964 tie rods with a spherical bearing providing a more direct and responsive steering feel. Thus, proper suspension geometry is restored, driver corrections are minimized, and vehicle trajectory is stabilized making driving control easier while reducing driver fatigue.

 

Out Performs All Other Tie Rods
Even on cars fresh from the Porsche factory assembly lines our anti-bump steer kit will reduce bump steer through the full range of motion.
