  TC Rods for Stock 510 LCA

FutoFab’s adjustable tension control rods have more than 1” of adjustment by turning the black anodized aluminum connector. The TC rod bolts to the stock lower control arm using a satin black powder coated steel mounting bracket.

  TC Rod - Parts used to attach to the chassis

FutoFab’s tension control rods use a ball and socket front pivot point. The kit includes an aluminum locating washer that also keeps the dust bellows in position. The ball and socket is held in place with a flanged nut and star lock washer locking it to the chassis.

FutoFab vs. Stock TC Rod connection at LCA

FutoFab uses a clevis with a 3/8” NAS bolt and locking jet nut to connect the TC Rod to the lower control arm mounting bracket.  This allows for the needed change in angle between the TC rod and LCA when high amounts of caster are being used. Rigid TC rods do not allow for this and can actually try to bend the TC rod with extreme amounts of caster.   

  TC Rod - Locating washer at chassis end connection

The step on the locating washer seen here holds the forward end of the TC Rod centered in the chassis mount.
