Competition-Oriented 4.8MM Hex Ball Studs by 3Racing

The 3Racing 4.8MM Hex Ball Stud L=5 is engineered to provide a precise 4.8mm interface suitable for tuning-critical linkages and ball-end joints. In competitive setups, minimising play at suspension pivots helps preserve alignment and supports consistent steering response. These studs are intended to be a straightforward, value-conscious upgrade for racers looking to reduce mechanical tolerance without altering geometry.

How does stud tolerance affect setup precision?

Tighter stud-to-ball fit reduces side-to-side movement at the ball joint, which helps maintain programmed toe and camber settings under load, improving repeatability between runs.

Can these studs be used for fine tuning of steering feel?

Yes, swapping to precise 4.8mm studs can tighten steering response by removing slop in the linkage chain, which is often one of the small gains that add up on fast tracks.

Any setup checks after installation?

After fitting, verify free movement of the ball in the cup and confirm that no binding occurs through the full suspension travel. Recheck after initial running and adjust as required.
