lca compliance bearing
working on compliance bushing replacements for my dc2 front lca ..
we cut out the center of the stock piece, then installed 2 bearing housings and tacked 'em in place. uses 2 opposing teflon lined angular spherical bearings (half circles)
should be able to take large axial and radial loads

Re: lca compliance bearing (nscirocco)
Curious, if you're making a custom bushing / bearing like that, why not offset it down to add some anti-dive to the front suspension?

Quicker and easier then what I was planning.
I'm actually working on drawing up a set of billet 7075 aluminum ones that have been bushed with bronze to completely eliminate the factory piece

I decided to quote you on that so you couldn't erase it...
Good luck. (You'll need it.)

machining things diagonally on a lathe is a pain .. and without some serious geometry study i think it'll cause more problems than it tries to solve
