GKTech Front Suspension Arm Package for Scion FR-S BRZ GR86
$1,104.30
This listing is for the 5 adjustable suspension components in the front of your 86/BRZ; tension/front lower, inner tie rods, tie rod ends and swaybar end links and as a package deal we're offer an additional 10% off our listed price for the items vs when sold on their own. The new GKTECH suspension arms are unlike any other suspension arms on the market and they're manufactured to a standard not made available to the average motorsport enthusiast: CAD designed, FEA tested, CNC machined ends and TIG welded and to finish the arms off they're E-coated (aka electrophoresis coating) for rust prevention and we're exclusively using high quality 5/8" Teflon lined rod ends.
FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS/CASTER ARMS
Front lower control arms allow for the ability to change your front track. In this instance each side is adjustable from OEM length through to +30mm or the longer version being +40mm through to +70mm. Caster arms (aka tension rods) allow adjustment in vehicle castor to bring the wheels forward and increase steering response. In general, the more caster the better. Allowing sharper turn in and faster return to the straight position when letting go of the wheel.

INNER TIE RODS
Depending on whether you run rack spacers or not and also the length that you set the LCA at you will need different length inner tie rods. We have made inner tie rods that had enough adjustment to suit any configuration with our LCA's.

TIE ROD ENDS
Adjustable tie rod ends to adjust your bump steer. This allows the tie rod end balljoint to sit along the same plane as the front lower control arm balljoint, which is exactly what you want for a lowered car to handle at its peak.

FAQ'S
How much angle can I get out of these LCA's?Our lower control arms can support around 65 degrees of steering lock!
How hard are these to fit?They are quite easy to install but mechanical knowledge is required and recommended. We also include an assembly guide on most product pages, that can be seen above. You are also welcome to get in touch if you need help.But apart from that, remove your standard LCA's and compression rods and the LCA's will bolt straight in.
What happens if a bearing needs to be replaced?They are common sized bearings, which can be found at any local bearing supplier.The ball joints used are an OEM style unit.The rose/ heim joints used are PCML12TESAre these suited to circuit/grip racing?Yes, absolutely. These arms use of spherical bearings which do make them entirely useful for circuit/grip racing by eliminating bush deflection. Coupled with the built-in caster angle and the additional adjustment to increase track width.Do I need to do any other modifications to get the most from these LCA's? You can bolt them in as they are, however, you would only increase your track and caster angle.Ideally, you would get these alongside our bolt on steering kit if you're looking for more steering lock (drift car) and either the bolt on rack spacers or the offset rack spacers. If you plan to run a swaybar either for grip or drift setups, you will need to use in conjunction with our adjustable swaybar end link (refer to product GT86-FELS). In addition to the swaybar end link, if you run the LCA's much longer than OEM you will need longer tie rods (like the ones we sell, sold separately)
Will these fit my car?We can only confirm fitment for the vehicles listed above under "confirmed fitment".
How long is the warranty on these arms?All GKTECH suspension arms come with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.The PTFE lined rose/ heim joints come with a 1 year replacement warranty and as mentioned, they are a common size which can be found at any local bearing supplier, or we do keep them on the shelf!
Are these suspension arms legal for use on street cars?We do recommend that you contact your local RTA for clarification/confirmation if you intend to run on a street car. Whether you use a suspension arm with a rose joint on public roads is at your discretion.
