Is installation difficult for a club racer?

Installation is straightforward if you have basic tools and a workshop manual. Follow torque settings and check alignment after fitting to ensure proper steering geometry.

How should I approach setup changes with this block?

Make one change at a time and test on a consistent surface. Use the extra upper arm positions to adjust roll center and observe effects on understeer or oversteer before moving on.

Does the aluminium require special care?

Aluminium is robust but inspect for nicks and keep mounting hardware torqued to spec. A quick check after each meeting will help prevent loosening or wear-related issues.

Will this change tyre wear?

Adjusting caster and roll center can influence tyre load through corners. Monitor tyre condition after setup changes and tweak camber or toe to manage wear.
