The GKTECH Caster arms (aka tension rods) allow adjustment in your Skylines castor to bring the wheels forward and increase steering response. In general, the more caster the better.
Allowing sharper turn in and faster return to the straight position when letting go of the wheel. Our arms feature high quality 5/8" Teflon lined pillow ball rod ends which eliminate the flex found in factory rubber bushing offering a more direct and predictable feel.
- Manufactured from 4130 chromoly tube with billet CNC machined ends and CNC machined 4130 chromoly adjusters.
- CAD designed, FEA tested, CNC machined ends and TIG welded - Include offset bush spacers for even more clearance

Customer Reviews
These arms are solid and simple to fit, the adjustment is smooth and easy to access making it fun to dial your caster in.
Their how to video really helped getting these installed. Took about 2hrs for me when you take into account breaking bolts loose anti siezing them for later if you want an easy uninstall for whatever reason, and getting everything lined up. Well worth the money
The order was delivered on time & in safe packaging, it was exactly what was needed to fix my girlfriends skyline - and we couldn’t be happier with the outcomes. Highly recommend
I found the item to be of the usual high standard I have seen on all gktech products.
The setup sheet didn't cover the S14 but I had no issues measuring from the old arms to the new.
These were recommended by my suspension guy as there are no S14 (Other than drift arms). The Standard OEM caster arms have been known to snap with extreme suspension travel from dirt rally cars. The Rose joint units offer more adjustment and handle the twist generated by the suspension arms movement.
Always had issues removing the OEM caster arms due to suspension droop, but had no issues getting these mounted.
Perfect thank you
