Product details:
After extensive CAD development based on the 3D scan of the OEM engine cradle, tested with the CAD FEA (Finite Element Method) method and on the road, you can now purchase a cradle for the front of your vehicle. List of cars below.
We use the same T45 tubes as in the WRC cars, our wishbones provide increased stiffness and extra fit. All factory parts are bolted to this unit, no further modification is required.
"T45" tube is a very unique seamless carbon steel tube that has been used in many applications in different industries. It is more resistant than the Co-Mo 4130 tube also used in motorsport.
It is widely used in the aerospace industry and in equipment such as pilot seats and crew seats due to the ability of the materials to withstand high G-forces without cracking or splitting.
This material is carbon and manganese based and meets aerospace specifications set by UK standards.
Properties
Traction: 700 - 900MPa,
0.2% Efficiency 620MPa minimum
Hardness test: 201min - 262 max HB or 210min - 275max HV
Advantages :
- - Can be used with our lowered and adjustable tubular front wishbones
- - This modification changes the weight distribution from 46% to 55% between the front and rear axles.
- - The cradle is bolted directly to the frame as it was, but we changed the diameter of the holes in the cradle mounting points to be smaller. This is done to avoid the displacement of the subframe under the car in the event of a high overload.
- - We kept the OEM mounting points for wishbones, steering rack, stabilizer bar, engine mounts, brake cables and headlight range sensor - Plug & Play!
- - Weight of the cradle 10kg, this is a weight saving of 40% compared to the OEM cradle which weighs 20kg ~
- - One and only mounting position
- - Increased chassis rigidity to improve driving performance
Characteristics :
- - Better accessibility under the car allowing the triangle change without any other disassembly constraint
- - T45 tubes (BS4 T45 to BS5T100 / BS6S100) imported from UK and S355 metal sheets
- - All TIG welded components
- - Supplied painted (epoxy powder coating) black
- - A similar tubular cradle structure is also used in Mercedes AMG GT3 and GT4 cars.
- - Can be used with OEM or aftermarket wishbones
What's included:
- - Lightweight reinforced painted cradle with VERKLINE polyurethane support
- - Contact surfaces secured with Aluminum Anti-Seize. This applies to the wishbone mounting points, electrical ground, and subframe brackets on the chassis.
- - Printed installation instructions
