Anybody using the Pfadt Spherical Control Arm Bearings?
Is anybody using the Pfadt Spherical Control Arm Bearings? If so is there a noticeable change vs. Poly Bushings? Any issues?

Hi dfinke23, These sphericals are really recommended for race applications only. We do not have a problem with customers installing them on street cars, but those who do need to realize the added NVH potential that goes along with these parts. For a dual purpose car (Street/Track) a lot of our customers decide to go with the poly kit for this very reason. So the noise that Z06Norway is probably referring to is typical added NVH that is associated with race parts. Any questions let me know. Thanks!

I had heim joints in my entire rear suspension, and some of the front in my '99 Z/28. They make a lot of "clunking" over bumps and stuff in the road. It didn't really bother me, but my Z06 will hardly be street driven anyway.
