WAS-513 Fitting Instructions

For performance driving toe angle is one of the most important suspension setup parameters. To control it over the entire range of coil over travel, we need to measure and adjust bump steer which could be needed, especially when we have changed other suspension parameters like ride height.

With Verkline tie rod ends it is possible to adjust front bump steer by relocating the ball joint lower or higher with attached adjustment spacers (see picture below). There are 6mm of them combined and You should always use all of them. To replicate OEM geometry put 2 mm of adjustment spacers below the ball joint and 4mm above it. If You want to change Your bump steer simply relocate some of the adjustment spacers from below the ball joint to its top, or the other way around.
