Since standard sports car suspensions always represent a compromise between driving dynamics and ride comfort, they are only suitable to a limited extent for use on the race track. Consequently, there is potential for optimization if performance is to be increased.

In the area of chassis optimization, in addition to shock absorbers and springs, the wheel suspension in particular plays an important role.

ADVANTAGES OF UNIBALL SPHERICAL PLAIN BEARINGS

• More precise transmission of drive, steering and braking forces between wheel, suspension and body. The radial loads, as well as the axial forces, are thus transmitted backlash-free
• Precise guidance of the wheels to the body and backlash-free and low-friction articulated joints, resulting in higher rigidity of the force-absorbing components
• Precise axle guidance and elimination of unwanted body movements, give the driver a more accurate impression of the current driving condition
• High stability with maximum range of motion, enables more precise adjustment of the chassis
• Increased durability and service life compared to standard joints due to high-quality materials and manufacturing processes

We would like to mention that while our TIKT Uniball joints deliver increased performance, it comes at the expense of ride comfort, as the damping effect of the standard rubber mounts is eliminated.

These uniball joints replace the relatively elastic rubber bushings of the standard chassis with bushings made of metal when connecting the individual suspension components.

ATTENTION: TIKT Performance Uniball parts are highly sensitive high-end products that are subject to regular inspection and are intended for track use only. Not approved for street use. (No warranty.)

A complete set of Uniball bearings for the front upper and lower wishbones and for the rear upper wishbones consists of 12 pieces.

The rear lower wishbones are equipped with Uniball joints as standard.
