Unlock the full drifting potential of your Ford Mustang S550 with the Wisefab Angle Kit, the ultimate upgrade for both competitive drivers and enthusiasts. Precision-engineered and crafted from the highest quality materials, this kit is designed to enhance your drifting experience with increased steering angle, superior car control, and professional-grade performance and quality.
This kit is designed for use with the S550 steering rack, but for those seeking maximum performance and more precise steering, we recommend our S197 Hydraulic Steering Rack Conversion Kit.
-
65-degree lock, parallel steering
Even trackside, you can adjust the steering geometry in just minutes to either positive or negative Ackerman without disturbing the alignment.
Ackerman adjustment kit is included. - Adjustable lock stops
-
High-strength drop knuckles dedicated to drifting
Upgraded kinematics and built-in camber adjustment. -
Integrated lower control arm design with quick caster adjustment
The lower control arm has a built-in, easy-to-use quick caster adjuster. -
Built-in roll center (RC) correction.
The knuckle drops the joint. This raises the front roll center, improving roll stiffness and allowing for the removal of the front anti-roll bar (sway bar), which is very difficult to package when using extreme lock angles. -
Precise camber control and minimal bump steer at high steering angles
For a drift car, dynamic camber and bump steer are far more important than static camber and bump steer. Leveraging kinematics, we designed the camber to provide excellent front grip and ensured bump steer is minimal across the entire steering range. -
Steering jacking control
During drifting, as the steering angle increases, jacking also becomes more intense. To solve these handling issues, the geometry has been modified in the design. -
Consistent and predictable self-alignment torque
Caster is not the only critical parameter for providing sufficient self-alignment torque, especially at high lock. A combination of various parameters is required to maintain consistent trail and self-alignment torque. With this setup, the steering wheel moves in the direction of the wheel's movement and will not stick even at full lock.
Kit Includes:
- Coilover upper mounts (FD compatible)
- Knuckles with hardware
- Lower control arms
- Assembled tie rods
- Installation guide
Additional components, packaging, and clearance.
- This kit assumes the use of coilovers for clearance and ride height adjustment.
- Depending on wheel width and ET, wider fenders or fender flares may be required.
- Minimum wheel diameter is 17 inches (some 17-inch wheels may not fit).
- For wheel speed sensors, use Magnaride or Shelby speed sensors (Part numbers JR3Z-2C205-B and JR3Z-2C204-B).
- For wheel bearings, use part number FR3Z-1104-F (Shelby GT350/chassis with Magneride) or part number FR3Z-1109-A (Shelby GT500, includes extra-long studs). Alternatively, you can use Nissan 370z wheel bearings with the included fitting kit (wheel speed sensors do not work with the 370z option).
Recommended Alignment Specs
- Camber: -4°, Caster: 6°
- Toe: Use 2mm toe out if Ackerman is 0 or negative; use 0mm toe if Ackerman is positive.

Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At Shaft-Ya Shopping Site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred during customs clearance on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇Checking Compatibility
Our entire product database is based on North American vehicles (USDM). Please confirm whether the product can be installed on a Japanese vehicle (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether a listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to assist you.)
If you order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and vehicle model on our top page tabs, it does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese model vehicles without modification.
All products are translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Shipping estimates are calculated automatically when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping cost and the actual shipping cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
Essentially, all products are shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping within Japan, international shipping takes approximately 7 to 14 days, so please order with ample time. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm delivery times. All products are transported via air freight. They are not shipped by sea.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
Essentially, all products we handle are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with "Japanese vehicle inspection standards," and we cannot provide strength evaluation documents or similar paperwork for Japanese inspection purposes. Therefore, all parts are sold for use on "circuits, private land, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. As all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be shipping damage to packaging boxes or the products themselves. We will handle returns, refunds, or exchanges only if you contact us within 7 days of receipt regarding damaged, defective, or incorrect items. Please note that for products sold through us, warranty support will be handled "only through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
