This extra rigidity gives you more rear grip, reduces chassis flex, and delivers sharper handling on technical sprint courses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Do I need special hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.. you need four PKTAK8 axle keys for a secure fit.
