Zavedení
The Blue Ox TT2302 TigerTrak is an essential component designed to improve the handling and stability of Workhorse chassis, specifically W20, W21, W22, and W24 models. This rear axle bar effectively eliminates the side shift of the axle in relation to the chassis frame. This lateral movement often causes a sensation of instability, prompting the driver to overcorrect with steering input. By minimizing this shift, the TigerTrak provides a more stable and predictable driving experience, reducing driver fatigue and enhancing overall safety.
