After the installation of either an Eibach Pro-Kit or Sportline spring set, a vehicles alignment should always be checked. Once lowered, a wheels camber may become increasingly negative, meaning the top of the tire is angled inward (toward the center of the vehicle). While some negative camber aids in improving traction and road adhesion, too much can result in peculiar handling and accelerated tire wear. Eibach offers a complete range of alignment kits which offer a simple, affordable solution to adjust negative camber. These alignment kits not only assist in adjusting a vehicles camber back to factory specifications but they also allow the experienced chassis tuner to utilize the increased adjustment range to dial-in a performance alignment that uses negative camber to maximize a chassis potential. Turn-in becomes more precise and handling increasingly crisp and predictable. High-speed stability is also enhanced making an alignment kit from Eibach almost a necessity for the serious performance tuner. Manufactured by Specialty Products Company for Eibach.
The rubber bush of the tension rod has been replaced with pillow balls (spherical bearing) in all TEIN"s Pillow Ball Tension Rod to eliminate tow change through compliance on acceleration or deceleration and allow only for vertical movement by the lower - arms. It also reduces the roll at corners and creates quicker steering response.
In addition, the wheel alignment (caster angle) can be set through adjustments.
TEINs pillow ball (spherical bearing) upper mount is designed for each individual model of the vehicle. By remaining the positioning design of upper spring and shock absorber close to manufacture"s standards, TEINs pillow ball upper mount keeps height change to the minimum and maintains the stroke center.
