The aFe PFADT Steel Frame Spherical Control Arm Bearings are high-performance upgrade components designed for Corvette models from 1997 to 2013. This set includes 18 control arm bushings featuring mono-ball spherical joints, aluminum bearing housings, and stainless steel shafts, providing a robust and precise connection. These bearings are engineered to eliminate the deflection common with OE factory bushings, which can exceed an inch during turns and lead to nearly 1 degree of camber loss, resulting in unpredictable handling. Constructed with durable materials, the PFADT series bearings deliver improved stability, responsiveness, and consistent alignment under aggressive driving conditions, making them ideal for racing and high-performance applications.
Designed specifically for 1997–2013 Corvette models, these control arm bearings serve as a direct upgrade to factory components, offering a solid spherical joint solution for enhanced handling. They are suitable for track use, spirited driving, or any scenario demanding precise suspension geometry. Installation involves replacing the stock bushings with these mono-ball spherical joints, ensuring a secure fit and reliable performance. The kit includes all necessary bushings and hardware, providing a comprehensive upgrade for improved camber control and steering feel. These bearings are perfect for enthusiasts seeking to optimize their Corvette’s suspension for maximum grip and predictable handling.
