These Spherical Bearings are the solution to a rotted inner LCA bushing, commonly referred to as the #1 bushing on The IS-F chassis but for handling track loads with sticky tires.   The Spherical bearing mount also allows wider sweeps in lower arm caster adjustment when used with our Track-Spec #2 Mount.


They feature a PTFE  lined FK spherical bearing for the highest strength and long-term use on the track or dual-purpose vehicle. We have tested these for the past year in Track duty so you know you are getting the highest quality solution.

 

Set includes 2-Bearings, 1 set to replace both front arms.

A shop press is Required for installation and the hardest part will be removing the old bushing.

 

Install:

Remove old bushing via any means possible. We suggest cutting off the 2 end "caps" with a bandsaw and them pressing out the center tube. This will free up the remaining 2 bushings cups that are pressed into the arm at each side. 

Press in the Bearing cup with a shop press if possible to preserve the alignment and to not overstress the bearing. 

If the arm is damaged during bushing removal, bearing retainer compounds, like Loctite 620 or similar may be used. 

Install misalignment spacers

Inspect to make sure there is no binding in the bearing motion.

lubricate the bearing and surfaces with dry PTFE lune only.  NEVER USE GREASE!

You done!
