Lower Link and Steering Gear

The complete lower suspension link can be left stock. The inner chassis mount rubber bushing may also be left stock since it is very rigid and deflects a minimal amount while cornering.

The complete steering linkage assembly is adequate for competition purposes. This includes the steering gear box, tie rods, tie rod ends, all steering arms, idler arm assembly and the lower ball joint.
