Title: Koni damper/shock spherical bearing
Post by: Flyinghorse on May 17, 2012, 22:39:33

Does anyone know of a supplier,or have a supply of the spherical bearings that go in the bottom lug of the Koni shocks as fitted to Mk3's , MkIV's and CRS (I dont know if all had the bearing installed)?
   
   Its "hand engraved" RBJ207L
   
   Google shows its a aviation bearing and I have some cross references (FL19716, PE53191-1ITEM75, RBJ207L, 3120992011162, 35NM47472, 4-27939, 992011162) so may be able to source locally.
   
   I will likley need for my MOT so its relatively urgent!

A few people are looking for this bearing. I think I have found a source of them ,reasonably priced with a sample on its way. Will post up the company's contact details when I know more in the next few days.
   
   Is everyone else's bearing the same as mine above?  It should be engraved on it & is easy to take out.

I meant to add that on a CRS you only need 2 of these bearings for the rear. The front Koni's have metal/rubber bushes.
