TRACK RODS

Track Rods

Under acceleration the front of the spring is utilized to push the vehicle forward and what tends to happen the spring "winds up" and creates a loss of traction. Our kit is used in conjunction with the standard spring to eliminate this problem. Kit consists of alloy bushes for front of leaf spring, all bracketry, 2 direct threaded 25.4 mm x 3.96 mm wall links with LH & RH Urethane bushed rod end and all mounting hardware. Units available for Ford, Holden, Mazda

The design is simple but effective, the front pivot plate (A) pivots on the spring mounts (B), via a steel tube insert that passes through the pivot plates on each side of the spring and the alloy bush in the spring eye. As the torque is applied it tries to rotate the diff housing in a clockwise direction, the track rod link (D) is pushed forward, rotating the front pivot plate forcing the spring stop (C) hard onto the top of the spring. The fixed spring stop above the spring prevents spring wind up. The track rod (D) can be simply adjusted for extra pre load for racing or set for street driving by releasing the tension onto the spring.
