Description
Enhance the handling and suspension performance of your 2006-2013 Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06 & ZR1 with the aFe Control PFADT Drag Race Rear Solid Spherical Control Arm Bearings Set. Designed specifically for aluminum-frame Corvettes, this kit eliminates bushing deflection, improving cornering stability, traction, and lap-time consistency.
Factory rubber bushings can deflect more than ¼ inch under load, leading to camber loss and unpredictable handling. This high-performance racing solution replaces all 10 rear control arm bushings with mono-ball spherical joints, significantly improving suspension precision. The 6061-T6 aluminum bearing housings, 17-4 PH stainless steel shafts, and FK Teflon-lined bearings provide maximum durability and corrosion resistance.
⚠ Note: Due to its race-oriented design, this kit may increase road noise and is recommended for track or drag racing applications rather than daily street driving.
