Pfadt Racing launches the Spherical Bearings you've been waiting for

With race season well under way, we're all testing the limits of our race cars and of course our driving! Seat time is the only cure for better driving, but in conjunction with that, our engineers have been busy working on cures for your race car.

We're very proud to formally launch our Pfadt Solid Spherical Bearing kit. Polyurethane bushings are a huge improvement over factory rubber, but solid mounts are the ultimate in eliminating friction and deflection in your control arms.

The factory busing deflection leads to unwanted toe and camber changes in both the front and rear as well as steering sluggishness. We've been running these on our race car for two seasons now and we can run less camber (because we don't have to account for the deflection), we get more consistent tire wear, and the steering is crisp and responsive.




Our kit replaces all 18 bushings with beautiful 6061 T6 aluminum sleeves, anodized Pfadt orange and laser etched with our logo and part numbers. The bearings are held in place with military grade Loctite 638 and retaining clips - they are actually easier to install then polyurethane bushings.

It takes about 108 individual bits to make one 18-piece kit. We do most of the work for you, so all you need to do is the install. Made and assembled in the USA, this kit is is the right solution for your control arms.





Please let us know if you have questions about any of our products or about car set up in general.

-Aaron

Aaron,

Is this for track only or for the street too?

We designed it as a track part. I'm sure there will be people using it on dual purpose cars also, but there will be a noise and harshness change associated with the kit. The bearings are certainly capable of street duty, but as the kit stands we do not include seals on the bearings so they will be susceptible to salt etc...

If there is demand we may offer a kit that has seals on the bearings.
