MOUNT ULLA, NC (September 10, 2012) - Tiger Rear Ends has announced that ARP® (Automotive Racing Products) ring gear bolts will now come standard on all Tiger Quick Change rear end assemblies.  The ARP ring gear bolts were both engineered and manufactured by the world leader in fastener technology specifically for Tiger’s application.

“At Tiger, we feel the performance of a quick change is only as valuable as its longevity and overall quality of the product,” said President Gerald Williams. “We pride ourselves on using proven quality parts that last in all of our quick changes, and that is why ARP ring gear bolts will be the standard going forward.”

Founded in 1968, ARP was the first company to design and engineer fasteners specifically for racing. ARP developed many patented process for manufacturing high strength fasteners from very strong materials. There's not another company in the world that is as focused on building superior quality fasteners for all forms of racing and non-racing applications as ARP.   ARP’s product line ranges from quality high performance OEM replacement parts to exotic specialty hardware for Formula 1, IndyCar, NASCAR and NHRA drag racing and marine applications. 

Since its inception, Tiger Rear Ends has used cutting edge technology to design and manufacture the highest quality strength to weight ratio rear ends possible. In addition to ARP ring gear bolts, other standard features on the Low Drag Tiger Rear End assembly include low drag yoke and carrier seals, aluminum posi-lock pinion nut assembly, HD rear cover with HD bearings, heat treated jackshaft, roller pinion nose bearing, low drag angular contact pinion bearing, and REM ® Isotropic Superfinish ring and pinion, bearings, and races.  REM finishing is a highly effective solution that has been proven to decrease drag and friction while increasing the efficiency, effective horsepower, durability, and extending component life.  Studies have shown a 95% reduction in gear wear compared to non ISF ® processed components.

Other than the castings and bearings, all of the manufacturing is completed in house on brand new state of the art machines to ensure quality control and a stocked inventory. Years of experience as well as innovative product development and testing will continue to give Tiger Rear Ends the competitive edge on the race track.

In addition to its signature line of rear ends and related components, Tiger distributes chassis components and other parts from select manufacturers.
