Overview

A pair of genuine Mazda front lower control arms with our spherical bearings (spherical bushes) pre-installed and ready to bolt on, for the Mazda MX-5 / Miata NC (2005–2015) and RX-8 (2003–2012).

Perfect if you need to replace your arms anyway and would rather not convert them yourself with our DIY kit. The bearings can be replaced as they wear. Designed for track-focused and race cars, where geometry matters more than NVH.

Spherical bearings or polyurethane bushes – what's the difference?

A polyurethane bush still flexes, and can bind as the arm moves through its travel. A spherical bearing rotates freely without deflecting, so your alignment and geometry stay where you set them under load. The trade-off is more noise and vibration passed into the car.

Can I use them on a road car?

They're designed for track-focused and race cars, where suspension geometry matters more than comfort. On a road car, expect noticeably more noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) than with rubber bushes.

Do I need to fit the bearings myself?

No. They come pre-installed in the arms, ready to bolt on. If you'd rather convert your own arms, see our DIY spherical bearing conversion kit.
