Baer Brakes Tie Rod / Bump Steer Kit Subaru WRX 2002-2005 | 3851001
Product Fitment: 2002-2005 Subaru WRX w/ stock spindles The Baer Brakes Bump Steer Kit (Part #3851001) is a precision-engineered suspension upgrade designed specifically for the 2002-2005 Subaru WRX. Engineered to eliminate unwanted steering deviation caused by suspension travel, this kit is ideal for Impreza owners seeking improved handling, tighter steering response, and enhanced cornering stability — whether on the street or the track. Correcting bump steer is a critical step for any lowered or performance-tuned Impreza build. Key Features & Benefits Bump Steer Correction — Eliminates toe change during suspension compression and rebound, delivering predictable, linear steering behavior at all ride heights Precision-Machined Components — CNC-machined from high-strength materials to ensure exact fitment and long-term durability under performance driving conditions Adjustable Geometry — Allows fine-tuning of tie rod angles to match lowered suspension or aftermarket coilover setups, restoring proper steering geometry Direct Replacement Design — Engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the factory tie rod components, simplifying installation without custom fabrication Performance & Street Versatility — Equally at home on a weekend canyon carver or a dedicated autocross/rally-inspired build Trusted Baer Engineering — Backed by Baer Brakes' decades of expertise in high-performance suspension and braking systems What's Included Bump steer correction tie rod kit components All necessary hardware for installation Installation The Baer Bump Steer Kit is designed as a direct-fit replacement for the factory Subaru Impreza tie rod assembly and can be installed with common hand tools in a properly equipped garage. However, due to the precision alignment adjustments required to fully eliminate bump steer, professional installation by a qualified alignment technician is strongly recommended. A full four-wheel alignment should be performed after installation to ensure optimal steering geometry, tire wear, and handling performance. Refer to the included instructions for torque specifications and adjustment procedures. Is this kit compatible with stock ride height? Yes — while most beneficial on lowered vehicles, this kit can also restore or improve steering geometry on stock-height Imprezas experiencing tie rod wear or geometry issues.
