Proforged Chassis Parts: Proven Steering and Suspension Components for Real-World Vehicles
Proforged steering and suspension components are a high-strength alternative to ordinary OEM replacement parts. Summit Racing carries these Proforged components:
Steering Rebuild Kits
Worn steering components provide poor response, making your vehicle harder to keep on the right side of the road. They also mess up your vehicle’s alignment, causing premature tire wear and wonky handling.
Proforged Steering Rebuild Kits have all the necessary replacement components in one complete kit. They feature precision CNC-machined SAE 1045 steel steering components for ultimate strength and durability. The ball studs are forged from SAE 4140 steel to deliver the longest possible life with the least amount of play. The studs are sealed with durable rubber boots to keep grease in and dirt out. Typical kit contents include a center link, idler arm, inner and outer tie rod ends, and billet aluminum tie rod sleeves.
Proforged Steering Rebuild Kits are available for 1964-96 GM intermediate cars.
Billet Aluminum Tie Rod Sleeves
OEM tie rod sleeves are prone to failure in performance applications. Proforged Billet Aluminum Tie Rod Sleeves are up to the task. They’re machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum that’s MIL-spec black anodized, so they are lightweight and look great. The threads are perfectly matched for use with Proforged’s Tie Rod Ends to virtually eliminate steering slop and make alignment adjustments a breeze.
Proforged Billet Aluminum Tie Rod Sleeves are available for many 1948-2005 GM cars and trucks.
Billet Aluminum Body Mount Bushing Kit for 1967-81 Camaro/Firebird
A Proforged Billet Aluminum Body Mount Bushing Kit will eliminate the body flex and twisting that occurs with the factory rubber bushings on your first- or second-generation F-body. That allows the suspension to work more effectively, resulting in better handling and responsiveness. The bushings are CNC-machined to very tight tolerances for a precise fit and to properly align the body and frame. They are black anodized to resist corrosion and include all necessary mounting hardware.
Ball Joints
Proforged Ball Joints feature improved designs for increased durability and longer life compared to OEM parts. Super-tough SAE 1045 forged steel housings and forged SAE 4140 steel ball studs provide a combination that yields incredible strength and toughness. The fully greaseable design extends service life.
Proforged Ball Joints are available for hundreds of 1955-2020 domestic and import vehicles. Ball joints with taller studs to improve performance are available for some applications.
Control Arm Shaft Kits
Proforged Control Arm Shaft Kits help fix sloppy handling and cure alignment woes. These premium-quality OEM replacements are precision-machined, heat-treated, and fitted with high-quality rubber bushings for a quiet, compliant ride.
Other features include:
• Sealed maintenance-free design
• Black e-coated for rust protection
• Offset design allows for negative or positive camber adjustment
• Kits include two shafts, lock nuts, washers (if needed), and four bushings
Proforged Control Arm Shaft Kits are available for many 1962-77 GM and Mopar vehicles.
Summit Racing also carries other Proforged suspension components including pitman arms, center links, control arm bushings, and control arm assemblies.
