STEEDA'S NEW FRONT CONTROL ARM BEARING KIT

^^^Saw the same thing several months ago on the cortex site...I almost got them but decided to wait. Nice that we will have more options now

Whoever can make one with the bearings already pressed into the performance pack arms will get my $$. For the non-PP GT, it will be a nice upgrade lol.

And, as [MENTION=26707]Mootang[/MENTION] said, whomever can make this already pressed in for a non-PP GT will get my money, lol.

I guess I should clarify that lol. I meant pressed into PP arms since the base GT don't have the extra plate attached to them for the brake cooling feature.

Still no word on ETA?

You can buy Cortex's front bearing ONLY if you want, I've asked. I decided to wait for Steeda's after I learned they were testing it (not just designing it at the time, but testing it in races... which was a while ago now).

My Steeda LCA bearings in the rear have been flawless thus far. As such I'll have the Steeda front bearing when it's available to buy.

Frankly, I can't even anticipate what these would do for my car given how happy I am with it as it is right now. I'm told, not be Steeda (to be clear, a person with the Cortex bearing), that they improve turn in response/feel with no real negative affect (that they care about).

Ford performance already offers this I believe.

the PP control arms come with the lower rear arms with bearings
the lower front arms are rubber, take a closer look at it.

So is there a way to upgrade the non-PP lower rear arms to the PP bearings without buying the entire kit of 4 arms?!

Yes, buy them off one of the dealer parts stores for way, way cheaper than that kit.

Or you can wait a little while for this:

Nice! I might wait for that Steeda arm and do the bearing at the same time.

Good plan :cheers:

Are there any plans to offer these with dust boots for those whose track cars also serve as daily drivers?

Another question: How difficult/ time consuming is installing the front bearing compared to the RLCA bearing?
