- Reduces maintenance downtime with its low-friction design.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I determine if this 12-inch tie rod is the correct size for my kart?
A: Measure your existing tie rod from center-to-center of the rod ends. If you are adjusting your front-end geometry for a wider track, ensure that the 12-inch length provides enough thread engagement for your specific rod ends to maintain structural integrity.
Q: Are the rod ends included with this tie rod?
A: No, this item is the tie rod shaft only. You will need to source compatible 3/8-inch rod ends separately to complete your steering assembly.
Q: What is the best way to maintain my tie rods for optimal steering response?
A: Regularly inspect the threads for debris and ensure the rod is not bent after heavy impacts. Keeping the threads clean and lightly lubricated will make future toe adjustments much easier during track-side tuning.
