MX-5 bumpsteer elimination spacers NB

Optimize Steering Precision with Miata NB Steering Rack Spacers:

• Correct bumpsteer in your Miata NB cars, including Mx5 NB and NBFL models, by installing these steering rack spacers between the subframe and steering rack.

Essential Mod for Tuned Miatas:

• A must-have modification for tuned Miatas equipped with low offset wheels, those without power-assisted steering, and cars featuring extended lower ball joints. This mod benefits all lowered cars.

Precision CNC Machined from POM-C aka Delrin:

• CNC-machined out of  POM-C for durability and accuracy.

Addressing Bumpsteer Effect:

• Lowering your Mx-5 alters the tie rod angle, causing bump steer—unintended wheel movement over bumps. This effect is further amplified with low offset wheels, impacting the scrub radius.

Spacer Thickness:

• Features a 15mm (short of 5/8") thickness to effectively correct the tie rod angle and reduce bump steer.

Compatibility:

• Designed for NB steering rack and subframe only. A separate kit is available for Miata NA models.

Alignment Essential:

• Alignment is crucial post-installation to prevent excessive front toe-out, preserving tire life.

Installation Tips:

• Ensure bolt holes are clean from dirt and oil using brake cleaner or degreaser.
• Tighten to factory-spec torque of 75-105Nm (preferably 85Nm) with a small dab of medium-strength threadlocker.

Clearance Check:

• Prioritize a clearance check (18-20mm) between the steering rack and oil pan. Address any lower engine issues caused by worn engine mounts or misaligned Power Plant Frame (PPF).

Note to Aluminium option:

• Some customers wanted aluminium option to be added so we listened to them, even though we stand behind Delrin (POMC) as being right material there. If you feel like you want aluminium over Delrin, this is option for you. Aluminium takes more time to machine so they are slightly more expensive.
