per item
Kit includes two adjustable tension control (TC) rods with bushings. These will allow the position of the lower control arm (LCA) to be "tweaked" to compensate for suspension changes that may have happened over the life of the vehicle. A lot of TC rods get bent for various reasons. When these trucks are lowered from stock ride height, the TC rod pushes the LCA to the rear a small amount. This kit will allow the LCA to be placed back in the correct position. These are not intended to increase the caster by pulling the LCA forward more than the factory setting.
The ends at the bushings can be worn from metal on metal contact due to worn out bushings. The new bushings have a boss on them that will help to keep this from happening in the future. The mounting holes at the core support and LCA will need to be opened to 9/16" which can easily be done with a step drill bit. I round file or metal cutting burr would also work.
The kit will only be partially assembled due to shipping constraints. The turnbuckles are zinc plated, but the rods will be bare steel. The customer will need to apply whatever finish they prefer, ie paint, powder coating, plating, etc.
