These bearings are definitely worth fitting, and not that hard to fit yourself if your handy. Along with the stop the hop parts, they make a huge improvement to the Mustang.
I have an annoying knocking noise coming from the rear of my 2017 GT premium convertible at lower speeds when I make tight turns in parking lots, or when turning a corner at an intersection. I did some research and came upon a guy here on UA-cam who seemed to have found the problem by installing his GoPro under the rear of the car and filmed the movement of the IRS lower control arm and Ta Dah! There it was! lots of lateral deflection of the IRS lower control arm right at the OEM bushing! So much so that the IRS rear bearing was allowing the IRS control arm to make contact with the subframe--causing the knocking. So, I guess it's these beautiful Steeda rear lower control arm spherical bearing to the rescue. I'll order some and hopefully my annoying rear end knocking will stop.
I love them on mine; but, plan on needing a 20 ton press. It took a crazy amount of force to get these out on an only 2 year old car (New England car, ymmv)
Steeda your make a video about a new bearings for the lower control arm. But it's not even on the control arm . People want see the product on the part it was made for. Then talk about how great it is
Just discovered my steeda bearings are failing in less than 6 months,cars is barley driven and now i need to do this job all over again.if you drive your car on the street ever be prepared. Does nobody make a polyurethane bushing for this? I don’t understand.

You are right Brian! Those are beautiful pieces.
I would like the kit to have a Polly or delrin added the for rear section of the control arm as well.

Does steeda have all complete package suspension upgrade for gt350 with wheels hop kit
Great tips.
What is the size of those, we have this problem in the Ford LTD 2002 very similar however ours are cast iron lower control arms
What part number is the smaller bushing on the back of the control arm those are out on my gt350

Do you just replace the front one on each lower control arm , or both ?
This replaces the front bearing, the rear is a spherical design from the factory.
How much NVH do they add?

How did you know they are failing?
Do you live in a wet climate? Is the car parked out side?
will these work well on a road racer as well?
No Sir for drag racing
r these for both sides?
Yes... 1 for each side
So 1 kit takes care of the whole car?
Replaces the bushing facing the front of the car on each side
Moooovement
