Anyone know if someone else is making these. Shine racing discontinued them and sold there last couple sets. I spoke to the owner and he said there won't be another production run.

I manufacture a complete LCA spherical bearing package for the Honda and Acura crowd. If the concept is similiar, I might be able to have my machinist manufacture a few sets. Can you get me more details of the installation.

the press and bolts is about 65bucksish? A1 and some A2s only, but i have diffrent cups for the later A2s and A3s.

I have the front part of the C-arm nailed down, but the rear is not compleat.

Lael,

Fill us in on how the sphericals are going. I still have not been able to track them down.

EDIT - oops. These are for a MkII/III but I think they have earlier applications, too.

I am trying to keep everyones 02 and newer vw/audis on the road, (cough Keycom)and i bought an 84 jetta coupe that had to have a 16v, but i orderd the berrings for the rear, so in a week or so i will have a prototype?MK2s are much more simple :bash_1_:

I can get NEW german C-arms for 25 bucks each, so it will be a compleat unit.

I will keep yall posted

Lael,
If you get around to doing A1 front/rear cassette/bearing setups this winter, I would be very interested in a set for my Bunny.

Don't you just hate it when customers get in the way like that?
