HARDRACE
Hardrace has a range of chassis upgrades to help you get the setup right. From adjustable camber and toe arms to reinforced drop links and control arms, its parts give you more options for improving how your car handles.
Hardrace has been manufacturing reinforced suspension components for over 25 years that keep your car predictable when being pushed to the limit. Its engineers use 3D modelling, material testing, and feedback from professional drivers on track to develop parts that can handle the demands of road and track use. At DRVN by Darkside, we offer Hardrace parts for drivers who want to get more out of their suspension, whether that's replacing worn components or making changes to a modified setup.
- Reinforced suspension components for road and track cars
- Adjustable camber and toe arms for more control over wheel alignment
- Developed using 3D modelling and real-world track testing
- Reinforced rubber bushes and rose-jointed options
What is Hardrace?
Hardrace develops suspension parts for drivers who want more control over their car's chassis, with options ranging from direct factory replacements to more focused performance upgrades. A big part of its development process is making sure each component works with the suspension it's designed for.
They use 3D modelling to develop parts around the car's original suspension geometry, checking mounting points, dimensions, and how each component moves before production. Even the rubber gets put through its paces. Hardrace uses tensile strength testing and specialist equipment to check how its bush materials behave, rather than relying on how stiff they feel. Its development team also works with professional drivers to test new suspension parts on track before they're released.
Hardrace Suspension and Chassis Parts
At DRVN, we offer a range of Hardrace suspension parts for replacing worn factory components or upgrading a car that's already been lowered or modified. Whether you're trying to correct the wheel alignment or reduce unwanted movement through the chassis, there's a range of arms, links and reinforced components to choose from.
Our Hardrace range includes:
- Adjustable camber arms
- Adjustable toe arms
- Upper and lower control arms
- Reinforced anti-roll bars
- Adjustable and reinforced anti-roll bar drop links
- Uprated rubber-bushed and rose-jointed suspension components
Lowering a car can change its suspension geometry, and some factory setups don't have enough adjustment to get the camber and toe back where you want them. Hardrace adjustable arms give you more room to make those changes, whether you're setting up a daily driver or something that spends more time on track.
There are also different options when it comes to bushes and joints.
- Reinforced rubber can help limit unwanted movement while keeping some of the compliance you'd want on the road.
- Rose-jointed components offer a more rigid connection, although they can introduce more noise and vibration into the cabin.

Why We Use and Recommend Hardrace
“It's surprising how much difference a few tired suspension components can make. You can have decent tyres and coilovers fitted, but if the bushes and arms are past their best, the car can still feel all over the place.
We like the choice Hardrace gives you. Their reinforced components are a good shout for replacing worn factory parts, and the adjustable arms come in handy when you've lowered a car and need to get the alignment sorted.
You can keep the setup sensible for everyday driving or go for something more focused if you're building a track car. There's plenty in the range without having to compromise on what you actually want from the car.”

How to install a suspension upgrade using Hardrace parts?
Fitting depends on which Hardrace component you're replacing and the suspension setup on your car. Control arms and drop links need to be installed using the correct mounting hardware and tightening procedures for the vehicle.
If you're fitting adjustable camber or toe arms, you'll also need a proper wheel alignment afterwards. Changing these components can affect suspension geometry, so getting everything set correctly is important for handling and avoiding uneven tyre wear. You can take a look at our Workshop for professional fitting.
What are the advantages of performance suspension upgrades?
Performance suspension upgrades can help reduce unwanted movement, improve steering response and give you more control over your car's handling. Reinforced control arms and bushes can help keep the suspension more stable under load, while adjustable components allow you to fine-tune wheel alignment where the factory setup has limited adjustment.
The benefits depend on which parts you're changing and the condition of your existing suspension. A worn component may simply need replacing, while a lowered or track-focused car might benefit from additional adjustment.
