Product FAQs

What is a traction link used for?

The traction link controls the fore-aft relationship of the rear suspension. Its length interacts with the other suspension links, so geometry changes should be checked as part of a complete alignment rather than treated as an isolated toe adjustment.

Are caster rods and tension rods the same component here?

These names refer to the front link listed on this page. This is a complete replacement link with the adjustment functions stated in the specifications, rather than a bushing-only conversion for the original rod.
