BMW E46 Lifestyle Lock Kit (Without Joints) DXC
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
A kit mainly intended for drivers beginning their drifting journey, and for more experienced users who appreciate smooth and precise cornering. The partially preserved trapezoidal geometry (Ackermann) with optimally matched parameters provides reliable steering return and great handling, valued by our customers. The kit geometry enables fast and precise transitions—upgrade your skills by installing the DXC Racing kit.
The offered set is fully plug & play—no need for eccentric bushings. However, we recommend using adjustable strut mounts (camber plates) and spring swivel seats for maximum efficiency.
WHY CHOOSE THIS KIT:
Geometry tailored for beginners and intermediates—full steering range used without fighting the wheel
Control arm pins mounted at an angle for increased lifespan and smoother operation
Adjustable steering stops that eliminate wheel wobble at max angle and allow limiting for wide wheels to avoid chassis rubbing
Minimal unsprung mass. Advanced analysis allowed lighter control arms without losing strength and rigidity. Adapters made of lightweight alloys, steel-like strength and hardness at a third the mass
Plug & Play—no welding or modifications
Installation time: 2–4 hours
