Upper Control Arms
When you lift your vehicle above its factory standard parameters, you’re potentially losing a degree of castor and camber adjustment for every inch you lift your vehicle. XGS Upper Control Arms actually solves this alignment issue by providing up to 3 degrees of additional castor & camber to regain those lost degrees of adjustment.
And the innovation doesn’t stop there.
XGS is the first in the market to design Upper Control Arms to have a specially designed mount area that will never rub against the rim of the car. To achieve this, we created a unique 3D CAD to design a product that occupies the same/similar footprint as the OE component, but with geometry correction and correct ball joint location built in.
To put this innovation into context, XGS Upper Control Arms allow fitment of virtually any aftermarket wheel as the ball joint mount area is now the same size as OE – none of the other aftermarket arms are able to offer this.
Why You Need Upper Control Arms
CAMBER Correction
Whether you’re heading off-road, touring across the country, or carrying a substantial amount of weight, installing a lift kit on your 4x4 is virtually a no-brainer. However, for every inch you lift your vehicle you’re potentially losing a degree of camber adjustment – and this can have serious consequences on your vehicle such as improper traction, and causing tyres to wear unevenly and prematurely.
XGS Upper Control Arms solves this alignment issue by providing up to 3 degrees of additional camber, giving you the same adjustability you had as your OE suspension, making wheel alignments possible.
CASTOR Correction
Just like your camber, lifting a vehicle can result in a loss of castor adjustment for every inch you lift your vehicle. However, unlike your castor, the ramifications are often experienced the second you hit the road. Often, what happens when your castor is out of alignment, is a severely decreased steering ability and steering response – causing the vehicle to pull more to the left or more to the right.
XGS Upper Control Arms provides up to 3 degrees of castor to regain those lost degrees of adjustment when a vehicle is lifted, returning the vehicle back to negative castor, improving steering feel and response.
