This Front Hub Upright has exactly the same geometry as the Original Equipment Lotus upright so is eligible to be used on race cars that must conform to OEM geometry but is made from Billet aluminium rather than extruded so it is stronger and stiffer.

NOW CLEAR HARD ANODISED NOT BLACK AS SHOWN

As the geometry is the same you can mix this upright with the opposite OEM without any issues.

Eliseparts have been manufacturing uprights for almost 20 years and have developed and improved the design with the help of Lotus Motorsport.

Many hundreds of hours of testing has been spent on both ours and other race vehicles including several successful entries in the Silverstone 24hr British GP.

This latest design is the ultimate upright for the Road and Track MK1 Elise, Exige and 340R requiring OEM geometry as we have improved overall stiffness yet managed to save over 200 grams in weight.

Our GT uprights are installed and raced on over 300 Lotus race and track cars throughout the world.

The hub upright itself has been designed to facilitate 2.5 degrees more camber than the OE allows so you don't have to shave down your steering arms or machine material off the already quite weak original upright.

Several companies have tried to emulate these but none offer all of the advantages and simplicity of ours especially at the price.

The bearing comes pre-installed with the circlip and benefits include:

1. HARD Anodised High grade aluminium, dissipates heat better so increases bearing lifespan.
2. Accepts the AP 4 Pot caliper OR the original 2 Pot calipers without the need for a heavy adaptor.
3. Specifically designed and machined for more camber adjustment than OE.
4. CNC machined billet aluminium, much stronger but only slightly heavier than OE version.
5. Hard Anodised to resist corrosion.
6. Will accept larger front Discs and Brake pads.
7. New 68mm OEM Timken Taper Roller Bearing
