TRZ Motorsports Universal Tie-Rod / Bump Steer Kit for Rack and Pinion - Length: 5.500 (5.250 - 6.500) - 202-550
Extended-Length Adjustable Bump Steer & Tie-Rod Kit for Pinto Racks
The TRZ Motorsports Universal Tie-Rod / Bump Steer Kit in the 5.250? - 6.500? adjustment range is engineered for custom race applications that require a longer tie-rod solution to maintain correct steering geometry. This adjustable kit replaces factory non-adjustable tie-rod ends and allows you to fine-tune your steering system to significantly reduce bump steer when set up properly.
Designed for use with standard and narrowed Pinto rack-and-pinion systems featuring 1/2-20 threads, this kit includes rugged chrome-moly rod ends, high-strength Grade 8 hardware, and lightweight 6061 aluminum spacers. Installation requires drilling the factory spindle or steering arm tapered hole to 1/2?.
TRZ's measurement procedure for determining your A-Dimension ensures you select the correct adjuster length. If your required measurement exceeds 7?, the recommended solution is the Universal Weld-Up Kit, which includes tubing and inserts for custom-length construction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to drill my OEM steering arm or spindle?
Yes. You must drill the tapered hole to 1/2? so the supplied hardware fits securely.
When should I use the weld-up kit?
If your A-Dimension is longer than 7 inches, you'll need the weld-up kit to fabricate a custom-length adjuster.
