Description
Xtreme-Grip™ Watts Link System, Track Use
Vehicles: 2005-2014 S197 Mustang
Why Do You Need It?
A watts linkage locates the rear axle laterally, meaning it prevents relative sideways motion between the axle and body of the car. It is an improvement over a panhard bar because the watts link more closely approximates vertical straight-line motion of the axle assembly allowing the vehicle to behave symmetrically in left and right hand corners.
A watts linkage is a mechanism consisting of two near horizontal links and a center pivot. The center pivot allows the mechanism to work because it compensates for the curved rotation of the horizontal links as they move through their arcs.
Xtreme-Grip Watts Link System Features
- Adjustable, lightweight, yet extremely durable.
- Spherical joints throughout for superior control
CorteX’s revolutionary differential cover
- Incorporates watts pivot mount as well as provision for a differential cooler and temperature sensor.
- Fast adjustment of the rear roll center
- Makes balancing the car easier than ever
*Two models of the watts link are available for the 2005+ Mustangs: Track or Street
For street cars that are concerned with NVH please consider the CWL-40-2000S, which uses poly bushings on the chassis ends of the links.
**2013-2014 GT500 Owners please see the optional plumbing kit that includes the fitting and hose needed to reconnect your OEM differential cooler to our watts differential cover. We have added a threaded port for the temperature sensor for OEM installations.
Pro Tip: A Watts Link is ideally paired with the CorteX Coil-Over Systems and with the optional Adjustable Front anti-roll Bar, ARB-40-1003.
