Thoughts on a-arm bushings for racing

push1267Member

I would like some input on bushings for a race pantera for RACE use, not street use.
I would prefer NOT to have to cut and weld the a-arms, so basically looking to bushes that can be pressed/slipped in the a-arm housings.

The alternatives I think are:

A) Polybushings (I'm not in favor of those, as I think they are way too soft for all-out race applications).

B) Uniballs, found these that have the correct outside diameter of 30 mm to fit inside the a-arm bush housings (either pressfit or with snap rings), but there may be better suited uniballs out there.
12 mm Uniballs

C) Solid brass bushing (as the factory used). No idea what the design was like and what material to use.
