F.M.T. Delrin Outer Rear Trailing Arm Bushings Available NOW!
We developed these to go with a set of our trailing arms and toe rods, based on a customer request for all delrin bushings in his trailing arms and toe rods he ordered, and we decided to offer them separate for anyone who just needs outer trailing arm bushings.
The are fluted to allow for you to modify your spindle to allow for greasing (pictures and how-to coming), or since delrin is self-lubricating, you'll be ok for quite a while without greasing, and no squeaks! CNC machined in-house here out of solid delrin, along with our anodized aluminum tubes, allow for easy fitment and a quick upgrade! Just head to our website! |

Will you get the NVM/NVH or whatever it is that you would with spherical bearings???
Or are they between between poly an a full bearing??? |

Most find them to be a compromise between poly and a Teflon lined spherical. I have the delrin in my spindle as shown and poly in the trailing arm, and do not find it to be harsh, but I also have a 85 Trans Am with a full spherical suspension, so my tolerance is subjective. But before I installed the delrin outer bushings, I had poly on both ends, and found only a minimal increase in NVH, but it's mostly drowned out by the cog drive on the Maggie!
