Rod: Relay rod

Other Informations

This steering part is designed using the following features:

• A new patented method of treatment of the ball stud - to ensure higher fatigue strength and smoother surface of the ball sphere.
• Dust boots made with new additives to the rubber compound - to enhance the physical and chemical resistance of friction and dirt/moisture.
• A unique chemical surface treatment of the body parts - to prevent rust, even under permanent contact with aggressive environment.
• A new patented ball seat socket, made of a new stronger and slippery plastic compound - providing less friction = less steering effort and better anti-shock properties.
• A lubricant specific developed for the new ball seat socket material - providing lubrication that lasts the entire life time of the steering part.
• Grooves in the new ball seat socket - to ensure the lubricant retain in the socket over the entire life time.
• A design and manufacturing technique that allows the manufacturer (and LADA World) to guarantee a life time of at least 50.000 km (on normal roads !)
• A heat treatment to the forged body parts - to improve the resistance of "tear-out" and "out-squeezing" by more than 200% compared to standard OEM requirements.

The tie rod ends' design is patented - If you think the LADA parts are old fashioned and outdated, you are thinking wrong: Lots of improvements are still going on.

Dimensions are 100% identical to the old number 2121-3414011
