Billet Aluminum alloy 2024 hex rods are precision CNC machined and gun drilled to reduce unsprung weight while maintaining high strength and stiffness. Our exclusive 360 degree Rotating Clamp design allows for easy access to quickly and precisely locking in your desired alignment settings.  Blue Anodized Titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms and offers superior strength.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFK Bearings Rod Ends are manufactured in Connecticut and JMX hardened high misalignment rod ends are used for superior strength and maximum articulation on the spindle connection.  They feature a Teflon liner to provide quiet operation, low friction, smooth articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load.  The PTFE liner is chemically bonded to the inner diameter of the race. The liner offers a very high load carrying capacity and has greatly increased dynamic wear characteristics. The operating temperatures of the liner ranges from -65º to 325º F, offering robust reliability for both street and track use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSold as a pair.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade in the USA!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGun drilled and Black Anodized 2024 Aluminum links to reduce unsprung weight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlue Anodized Titanium socket head cap screws\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRotating 6061-T6 Aluminum Clamp design\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardened JMX high misalignment low friction 3 piece Teflon lined FK Heim joints\/rod ends\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStainless steel anti dive spacers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eASTM A574 socket head cap bolts used for maximum articulation with minimum tensile strength of 170,000 psi\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBMW\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll F2X 2 Series models (2012+)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll F3X 3 and 4 Series models (2014+)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWILL NOT WORK ON AN X-DRIVE ALL WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.splparts.com\/content\/SPL%20TR%20F3x.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"SPL BMW F2X\/F3X Titanium Front Tension Rods\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1272\/9301\/files\/Download_Installalation_Guide_2020_Aug_Cropped_0a19f015-260e-4de3-949e-343246b6e81a_2048x2048.jpg?v=1629459767\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSPL TR F3X\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufactured by\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPL\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64545114980701,"sku":"SPL TR F3X","price":722.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1069\/0009\/5325\/files\/1SdKM3HPaRhJydazoIAFUOpdnFpgNc3Nb.jpg?v=1777365255","url":"https:\/\/performancepartsdirect.co.uk\/products\/spl-bmw-f2x-f3x-titanium-front-tension-rods","provider":"Performance Parts Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
