Why We Often Use Rod Ends

Описание: Amazed at how race drivers can position their cars what seems like millimetres away from each other without making heavy contact around a race track? While skill is an important factor, having a car setup that gives precise control and predictability is an essential ingredient.

To get this control on a street-turned-race car, a common modification is the removal of factory suspension bushings which are used for their longevity and ride comfort, and instead fitting the likes of rod ends like rose or Heim joints in their place. Such a change gives the driver more control, particularly under braking and while cornering, allowing them more precise control over the car's position on track.

There are a range of rod end options available like those from FK Rod Ends as shown at PRI, including metal types to fit different applications and budgets, and Teflon lined examples to help reduce the increased maintenance over rubber or Nolathane bushes rod ends will give. This gives us a ton of options no matter the level of motorsport.

Rod ends are also commonly known as Heim joints or rose joints.
