So it's been brought to my attention that the SA "small bearing" struts may not be the best piece of hardware for a car pushing 150mph. It was suggested I swap over to the larger FB spindle bearing.

What all is involved in this? Do you really think it necessary for a drag car? I'll have good synthetic bearing grease and it won't be sustaining high MPH for long periods of time.

Think this is really worth the swap? I already have nice SA drilled/slotted rotors and expensive pads on order. Not to mention the coil over kit I built for these struts.

Thanks!

 

Hmm, no not for an application like that. The speed isn't the issue, its the g forces on corning
when using the smaller bearing SA spindles. They don't last very long when road racing. For
you use, should be fine.

 

Good to hear, I'd like to avoid swapping now that I bought the other parts. I think I'll give it a try.

Thanks!
