EK front LCA spherical compliance bushings
As far as I can tell by searching this isn't covered.
I am reluctant to go the full spherical bushing route on my car, so far I have used them only in my rear trailing arm (the PCI parts) and have hard rubber everywhere else. I would also like to eliminate the biggest slop part on my front LCA, too, by replacing that big rubber bushing on the rear of the arm (Hardrace's part # is 6291 for their replacement if you're unsure what I mean) with a spherical bushing, too. I feel like replacing these two key compliance bushings with hard parts and then making the rest hard rubber will really positively effect my consistency without negatively effecting my bank account (too much). Hardrace used to have one, but has discontinued it. Does anyone else make these? Are they available from anyone now?
Thanks, y'all!

I haven't seen one but since it's such a simple part have you thought about a Delrin replacement? That would eliminate the deflection and since there's no bonded race it should be easy to machine/mill.

PCI makes a kit, not spherical, but solid bronze. Mine just showed up a week ago after a long wait while they were being made. Just something else to consider.
Not sure how searching harder would have helped me out... Hardrace told me their parts are discontinued and had I stumbled over kingpinmachine.com I would have probably said, oh, well, those are all EF/EG/DC parts. Good job fella.
Thanks for the leads, though, everyone else.
