TKi Motorsport Releases Rear Adjustable Toe Bars and Rear Adjustable Race Endlinks

Thursday, July 14th, 2011

TKi Motorsport is proud to now offer our very own TKi Motorsport adjustable rear toe bars and rear adjustable race endlinks for 2001-2009 Volvo S60/V70/XC70’s.

Toe bar information:

Volvo factory toe bars are notorious as being a weak link in the rear suspension, as they easily bend, causing your alignment to be out of specification. The Volvo factory toe bars also are adjusted via an eccentric bolt/washer, therefore making adjustment tedious. If you ever remove the Volvo factory toe bars for an installation, an alignment is necessary once re-installed.

The TKi Motorsport toe bars have been tested both on and off the race track. Even after car-to-car contacts and countless curb hits, the vehicle alignment stayed within specification, without damage to the toe bars. With right hand/left hand threaded clevises, installation and alignment is a breeze. Furthermore, if you ever need to remove the toe bars, an alignment is not necessary after re-installation. They utilize the highest quality materials and design, including:

- Anodized billet aluminum rods for strength, weight savings, and durability
- Powdercoated steel clevises for strength and durability
- Right and left hand threads for easy installation and adjustment
- Lock nuts to keep alignment within specification

Volvo model fitment:

Rear toe bars: Volvo S60/V70/XC70 (2001-2009)

Endlink information:

No matter what ride height or suspension setup you currently have on your Volvo, OEM swaybar endlinks are a common failure point. TKi Motorsport introduces to the market their Adjustable Race Version Front Endlinks for Volvo FWD and AWD 850’s, S/C/V70’s, and V70/S60’s. They utilize the highest quality materials and design, including:

- Heavy-Duty, PTFE Lined Rod Ends
- Front and rear endlinks include rubber dustboots
- Large Diameter, Billet Aluminum Rods for Minimum Weight and Maximum
Performance
- Designed for Racing/Track Use (Are perfectly fine for street use, however might make
noise over time due to rod ends).
- Replaceable Rod Ends
- No Welded Joints to Fail
- Adjustable Design to Benefit Corner Weighing, and Sway Bar Pre-Load Adjustment
- Right/Left Hand Thread for Fast Adjustment
- Includes All Necessary Hardware to Bolt-Up

Volvo model fitment:

Rear toe bars: Volvo S60/V70/XC70 (2001-2009). *Please note, the TKi Motorsport rear adjustable race endlinks slightly rub against the factory rear toe bars. In combination with the TKi Motorsport adjustable rear toe bars, no rubbing occurs.

*Item will be in our online store catalog once group buy has ended.

*Just to clarify:

Our race endlinks feature a PTFE lined heim joint, and are sealed with boots, however, they might make noise over time as that is a characteristic of heim joints. We try to eliminate this with the use of the teflon lining. Of all the race endlinks we have sold, we have had less than 1 handful complain about noise.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thanks for looking!
