Spherical Bearing Sizes
#1

Anybody able to help out with the sizes or part numbers for replacement sperical bearings for the Racers Edge front a-arm bushes - both the front bush and the camber block?



I'd like to try and source locally and save the freight.



many thanks and Happy New Year

it isn't just the bearings, so i don't think that will help much

what isn't just the bearings?



I need to replace the spherical bearing as they are worn - little point in replacing the housings also.



Bearings are retained in the housing with a circlip, so a straightforward proposition to press out and replace.

have you tried removing the bearing and looking for a manufacturer part number (like a Timken number)?? http://timken.dirxion.com/

ah - i thought you were just trying to replace the rubber with the bearings alone - my bad



i would grab some calipers and measure, and then order from a bearing company - i do that here from king bearing - no idea where down there though

thanks for that - I was hoping get the replacement bearings before I pulled everything down so would still appreciate sizes/ part no's if anyone has them.
