Do these two work together? If so, what is needed for them to work? Am I better off just getting the SPL bushing?

Tow Link is attached to the LCA Toe Link Bearing. No issue replacing one or both for they are separate and are OEM Spec. As far as installing them? That is determined by your mechanical skill set. The bearing will be a little difficult and you will need a hand press to remove Stock one and install the new Steeda bearing. Or take your LCA to a shop to have them replace.

@DougS550 This is where the confusion came from.

I don't know why SPL states Ford LCA Toe Link Bearing/bushings will not fit over the OEM spec Toe Links when they advertise them as a Direct Replacement for these Toe Links? Worth Calling Beefcake Racing and ask that questions. Makes no sense to me.

I think you have to splay the standard toe link a little to fit ?

Here was SPL response:


Thanks for reaching out and for your order! We're happy to clarify this for you.

Regarding your 2017 Mustang GT and the toe links you ordered, if you plan to install the Ford Performance knuckle bearing, you will not need to use the washers included in our kit.

This information is detailed in our installation instructions, a copy of which is attached for your convenience.
