Small part, big improvement
High-performance urethane
Manufactured with Riptide's proprietary urethane formula, they offer greater durability and better vibration absorption than the standard pivot cups included in many trucks.
Improved return and precision
A pivot cup in good condition correctly centers the hanger within the truck, improving return to center, stability, and the feeling of control when turning.
Reduced vibration and noise
They help eliminate unwanted squeaks, slack, and micro-movements, providing a cleaner and more consistent turning feel.
Longer life than standard pivot cups
The material is more wear-resistant, which means less maintenance and more consistent performance over time.
Affordable and highly effective upgrade
It is one of the cheapest and most noticeable improvements you can make to your setup.
