Experience unparalleled performance and enhanced suspension dynamics with Steeda's S197 Mustang 3rd Link Spherical Bearing. Designed to replace the upper trailing arm axle bushing with a Teflon-lined spherical bearing, this kit delivers ultimate strength, proven reliability, and improved traction for your 2005-2014 S197 Mustang.
Key Features:
Custom-Engineered Design: Crafted in September 2004 with proprietary CAD data, Steeda's 3rd Link Spherical Bearing is a testament to cutting-edge engineering. The billet steel construction ensures exceptional strength, making it the go-to choice for a wide range of applications, from high-performance street cars to road race cars and 7-second drag cars achieving 1.1 sixty-foot times.
Precision Machining and Yellow Zinc Plating: Starting with 1018 billet steel, Steeda's state-of-the-art multi-axis CNC lathe machines the bearing housing to exact tolerances. The housing and retaining nut undergo Yellow Zinc plating for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. This meticulous process guarantees a robust foundation for the Teflon-lined Stainless Steel spherical bearing.
Custom Teflon-Lined Stainless Steel Bearing: Unlike off-the-shelf bearings used by many companies, Steeda's 3rd Link Spherical Bearing features a custom preloaded Teflon-lined Stainless Steel bearing. This bespoke design minimizes deflection, ensures quiet operation, and maintains constant pinion angles, even under the demanding conditions of high-horsepower applications.
360-Degree Stainless Steel Spiral Lock: To reinforce the bearing retention mechanism, Steeda employs a 360-degree stainless steel spiral lock. This design surpasses conventional snap rings, offering unmatched strength and reliability. With this feature, the 3rd Link Spherical Bearing excels in high-performance scenarios where lesser components may fail.
Billet 6061 Spacers for Articulation: The Steeda team completes the assembly by pressing in billet 6061 spacers, providing ample articulation for the S197 rear suspension. This thoughtful addition ensures optimal performance and suspension compliance, contributing to better traction and lower 60-foot times.
Note: Includes one bearing. This is a high-performance part and may generate more NVH (noise, vibration, harshness).
