SPL TITANIUM Front Tension Rods and Rear Toe Links BMW E9X/E8X/F8X
SPL TITANIUM series tension rods provide a wide range of front caster adjustment, allowing precise alignment for optimal turn-in response and to compensate for variances between left and right caster. Low-friction, smooth articulating FK spherical bearings eliminate the stock mushy rubber bushing to provide a more responsive steering feel. Anti dive characteristics can also be tuned with the use of our stainless steel spacers
SPL Parts are engineered for maximum performance. Billet aluminum alloy 2024 hex rods are precision CNC machined and gun-drilled to reduce unsprung weight while maintaining high strength and stiffness. Our exclusive 360 degree rotating clamp design allows for easy access to quickly and precisely locking in your desired alignment settings. Blue anodized titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms and offers superior strength. Note on Three Piece FK Bearings: These rod ends are manufactured in Connecticut and feature a Teflon liner to provide quiet operation, low friction, smooth articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The PTFE liner is chemically bonded to the inner diameter of the race. The liner offers a very high load carrying capacity and has greatly increased dynamic wear characteristics. The operating temperatures of the liner ranges from -65º to 325º F. Sold as a pair. Made in the USA. SPL Adjustable Tension Rod Features: Gundrilled and anodized 2024 aluminum links to reduce unsprung weight 6061 aluminum clamps and Heim joint spacers Titanium socket head cap screws Rotating clamp design allows for easy access to lock down your alignment settings Low friction 3 piece Teflon lined FK Heim joints/rod ends made in Connecticut Stainless steel anti dive spacers ASTM A574 socket head cap bolts used for maximum articulation with minimum tensile strength of 170,000 psi Sold as a pair. Made in the USA. Applications: 2006-20013 E9X 3 Series M and non M 2008+ E8X 1 Series M and non M 2014+ F80 M3 2014+ F82 and F83 M4 2015+ F87 M2 SPL Titanium Series Adjustable Rear Toe Links E8X/E9X 1M M3 Version BMW with Eccentric Lockout Kit SPL rear toe arms increase stability and response by eliminating bushing deflection while providing an increased range of rear toe adjustment, necessary for lowered cars or for performance alignments. Even small changes to ride height and camber will effect toe settings and the wide range of adjustment allows you to maximize grip on a track car and extend tire life on a street car. The factory rear toe arms utilize an eccentric bolt and washer for adjustment and lack the precision that SPL Parts rear toe links plus eccentric lockout washers offer. Our eccentric lockout washers ensure that your alignment will never slip like the factory eccentrics are known for under extreme loads. Black anodized and gundrilled 2024 Aluminum main links along with our 360 degree rotating clamp design allow for quick and precise adjustment.

Harold, had I known I would have ordered through you. The only thing I didn't order were the front tension arms as I already have a spherical bearings in mine. Are you planning on stocking the rear components as well?
