Shock Therapy Polaris Ranger XP 1000 Bump Steer Delete Tie Rod Kit
The BSD™ Tie Rod Kit is a game-changer for the Polaris Ranger XP 1000. Extensive testing revealed significant steering wheel feedback and noticeable bump steer in the factory system. Bump steer, defined as changes in toe settings (where the front tires move closer together or farther apart during suspension travel), leads to instability, excessive front-end wear, and discomfort for drivers. Addressing this issue, the BSD™ (Bump Steer Delete™) Tie Rod Kit relocates the outer tie rod pivot point, optimizing the front-end geometry. With bump steer eliminated, the Ranger becomes easier to drive, offering improved steering control, reduced feedback, and enhanced predictability. This upgrade not only prolongs the life of front-end components but also ensures a more comfortable and effortless driving experience, saving drivers from unnecessary strain. Transform the way your Ranger handles with the BSD™ Tie Rod Kit!
Features
- Eliminates Bump Steer: Relocates the outer tie rod pivot point to optimize front-end geometry and reduce changes in toe settings during suspension travel.
- Improved Steering Control: Reduces steering wheel feedback, enhancing stability and driving precision.
- Enhanced Driving Comfort: Provides a smoother and more predictable driving experience by minimizing twitchy handling and forearm fatigue.
- Durability: Prolongs the lifespan of front-end components by reducing excessive wear and tear.
- Effortless Driving Experience: Allows for easier maneuvering and control, making every drive more enjoyable.
Note
- THIS KIT IS DESIGNED TO FIX THE GEOMETRY OF THE FACTORY ARM CONFIGURATION. ALL AFTER MARKET A ARMS CONFIGURATIONS PRODUCE A DIFFERENT AMOUNT OF BUMP STEER. ***BUMP STEER MUST BE MEASURED PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF THE KIT***
- The factory car has ZERO adjust ability for alignment other than toe set. Caster and Camber can NOT be adjusted. Toe adjustment with our BSD kit will not affect any other aspect of the alignment since nothing else is adjustable.
