Default Bump steer kit for 964 C2 ?

Ive searched alot, but can find a bumpsteer kit for a lowered 964 C2.

Does anyone make these, or is there an other solution I can improve this phenomenon ?

How come these are not available as for lowered pre 89 911s ?

Mine is lowered and I havent noticed uncomfortable bump steer. Is your alignment set correctly?

Steering rack is lower than tie rods and this causes problems

I'm not an expert but have you read these threads? They describe the Evo uprights have improved tie-rod geometry.

+1 ^ and also ensure that your inner steering links (that are connected to the rack) are perfectly horizontal. (meaning, the bolt that goes through them along the axis of the car should be perfectly level.) From what I understand, bump-steer can come from those being at an angle.

Yes, it's called 993RS uprights and tierods, Smart Racaing tierods can be used for extra adjustability

Thanks guys,

Bill, I have found 993 EVO Hub and Bump Steer Kit for sale in Smart racing. Is that what you are talking about ?
Will this fit a 964 ?
