We recommended using a hydraulic press rather than a vice or bearing installation tool to eliminate misalignment and galling. We can offer an installation service should you not have access to the tools to carry this out. These are intended for track-focused \/ race car use where suspension geometry is paramount over NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Performance Delta Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53457268998484,"sku":"MX5-SPH-BRN-RER-LAT","price":84.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1002\/4199\/8164\/files\/20250814_192532v2_39b404d9-2403-4bfe-8112-c3d1f5c5bad1.jpg?v=1769468214","url":"https:\/\/www.performancedelta.co.uk\/products\/mx5-miata-nc-rx8-spherical-bearings-for-rear-knuckle-upright","provider":"Performance Delta","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
