Schumacher Atom/CC low-profile front end

Made for the Atom and Atom CC GT12 pan cars is Schumacher’s new low-profile front end. The key benefits are a reduced king pin offset that is making the car easier to drive while also giving a more linear feeling due to better flex and geometry. The front end also allows for quick and easy camber adjustment with one nut and an adjustable ride height with shims under four points, independent of caster adjustment. Finally it gives more adjustment of the ride height on the kingpin. The assembly requires the #U4866 alloy hub carriers as it cannot be used with kit hub carriers.
