First off let me introduce myself, I'm Graham the lead product development engineer at AAD Performance; I'm not a salesman so bare with me
Some of you may have seen our S550 component unveiling at the Sema show 2021 where we were awarded a global new product award, others may have seen our logo on the sides of many mopars running the drag strip or auto cross course.
At AAD Performance we specialize in engineering elegant solutions to complex IRS issues. We engineer, design, test, and manufacture all our components in house; in Kansas City, Missouri. Our practices has allowed us to help launch a 4200lb Redeye into the 7's
Enough blabbing out us, lets talk about our S550 parts,
First off, probably the most popular upgrade to the rear end of the S550 platform; Vertical Link
Our Billet Vertical link is milled from a solid block of 6061-T6 Aluminum with a reinforced "I-beam" like structure that provides increased strength over factory and other aftermarket vertical links. They are then fitted with our patented Spheriflex bearing which eliminates deflection while allowing for bind free articulation as the suspension compresses. Our vertical links are a great way to decrease wheel hop without increasing NVH.
Available HERE
These next two is where things get fun, up next the rear upper control arm (camber arm)
Our Billet adjustable camber arms feature 94A durometer urethane bushings on the inboard side and spheriflex bearing on the outboard (knuckle side). We lock out the factory eccentric cam-bolt slot and utilize our tab adjustment system. Our tab system features stainless steel laser cut tombstone shaped tabs, the adjustment comes from the location of the bolt hole in the tab. The arm and end fit together in a tongue and grove fashion, the arm has fixed bolt locations and the end has slotted holes. This allows the arm to slide in or out to increase or decrease camber based on which tab is used. Ex... a '0' tab would have a hole in the center, a '-9' tab would have a hole 9mm below centerline, and '+9' would be 9mm above centerline. Allowing you to adjust make repeatable adjustments without any guessing...... also allowing quick alignment swaps..... street, to drag, to road course just by removing the wheels and swapping tabs.
Available HERE
Last but certainly not least is the toe links:
As always, out toe links are milled in house out of solid blocks of 6061-T6 aluminum. Featuring our patented Spheriflex bearing and our legendary tab adjustment system. These are the only toe links youll ever need to get your S550 to track properly. We lock out the sloppy factory adjustment and include an assortment of tabs to get your toe set right. The spheriflex bearing allows the toe to stay set as the suspension travels through compression cycles.
Available HERE
We are excitied to share our success in the mopar community with the S550 community, if you have any questions over these products, spheriflex bearings, or our tab adjustment system please feel free to ask away.
