Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What is the Griffin XD Steering Attenuator?

A: The Griffin XD is a patented inline steering attenuator designed to absorb harsh road feedback, reduce steering vibration, and improve handling feel. It replaces the solid clamp section of the YETI XD draglink for a smoother and more stable steering experience.

Q: Does the Griffin Attenuator improve off-road performance too?

A: Yes. While it's primarily designed to improve on-road comfort and control, it also adds value off-road by absorbing sudden steering impacts from rocks, ruts, and uneven terrain—helping reduce stress on the driver and steering components.

Q: Will this affect the steering input or responsiveness?

A: The Griffin is tuned to reduce harsh feedback without making the steering feel vague or loose. It maintains steering precision while smoothing out sharp hits and road imperfections.
