haha, silly noob

Doesn't hurt to have some options out there, cheaper price and the same function should be what all customers want. No one should complain, about less expensive but equal value products, other than companies competing in the same market; but that is the world business. If only 1 place in the world was allowed to make a product, boy-oh-boy would things be expensive...

Click on the product link, there is a description of what raising the rack does to help eliminate bump steer.

yeah but how necessary are they on a car and how much do you think it costs to install them?

Depends if you want to have improved handling. Personally I would do it myself, basic hand tools and a little time.

 

[outtamymind]

they are more necessary for a car that is lowered. lowering your car alters your vehicles steering geometery causing bump steer. installing these spacers brings your steering rack back in the (stock height equal if you will) so that your tie rod ends and your steering rack are at the correct proportionate level to each other. this is called a vehicles geometrics.

so if my car though does tend to pull to either side this would help?
also do I need another alignment after i install these?

 

[outtamymind]

yes it is recommended that when doing anything that involves part replacement or addition to your steering components an alignment check be performed and if needed an alignment. and if your car is pulling to one side either you have a flat tire, your alignment is out or your on a road with a slope

well I think for $20 then its not that bad then right?

 

[TurboTechRacing]

Great value for $20 IMO, one of the most least expensive mods you can do
