Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I determine if the 270mm length is correct for my kart?

A: The 270mm length is typically used for wider track width setups. Measure your current tie rod from end to end. If you are adjusting your front-end geometry for a wider stance and your current rods are maxed out on thread engagement, this 270mm version provides the necessary extra reach.

Q: Does this tie rod come with the rod ends (heim joints)?

A: No, this product is for the tie rod tube only. It features standard 8mm x 1.25 right and left-hand threading, making it compatible with most industry-standard 8mm rod ends.

Q: Why choose a hexagonal profile over a round tie rod?

A: The hexagonal profile allows you to use a wrench to easily rotate the rod while it is installed on the kart. This makes fine-tuning your toe-in or toe-out settings much faster and more precise without needing to disconnect the rod ends.

Q: How do I install this tie rod correctly?

A: Ensure you thread your right-hand and left-hand rod ends into opposite sides of the tube. Because the rod uses opposing threads, rotating the tube will lengthen or shorten the assembly simultaneously, allowing for quick steering adjustments once the jam nuts are loosened.
