What inspection points should a tuner check after fitting?

Inspect ball end retention, confirm thread engagement, and verify rod straightness. Ensure ball sockets move freely without excessive side play to preserve steering accuracy.

Are torque settings different compared to stock parts?

Use light, consistent tightening for small fasteners and avoid over torqueing ball end fixings. Secure but adjustable joints deliver the best balance between retention and serviceability.

How should these parts be serviced to extend life?

Keep contact areas free of grit, replace worn ball ends promptly, and store the vehicle in dry conditions. Routine checks after each run will prevent progressive wear and maintain steering precision.
