I think that there is around 22 at approx NZ$ 12.00 each
i went cheap as they do break if you hit something and it wont wreck the chassis points
It still possible to get the required strength at a reasonable cost!
The biggest decision you have to face is do I or dont I over engineer it !
My race weight is 400kg off the trailer and i weigh 95 kg so the whole car is light weight.
Stay in touch
cheers

Thanks for the info Stu
Are the larger more "agricultural" sperical bearings cheaper than the more expensive slender and lighter race ones?

Hi Phull,
send an email to Nick Skidmore for very reasonable prices on Rose joints.
N.Skidmore@wvl.ac.uk
Almost any bearing magnufac. has spherical joints in their program-SKF,Timken,NGK,Heim etc...
Cheers Cita
