The aFe PFADT Drag Race Rear Sph Control Arm Bearings are high-performance spherical control arm bearings designed for Corvette Z06 models from 2006 to 2013. These bearings feature mono-ball spherical joints, aluminum bearing housings, and stainless steel shafts, providing a significant upgrade over OE factory bushings. They are engineered to eliminate deflection in turns, which can exceed an inch and cause nearly one degree of camber loss, leading to unpredictable handling. Built with durability and precision in mind, these control arm bearings deliver improved stability and responsiveness during aggressive driving and racing conditions, making them an ideal choice for serious track enthusiasts and racers seeking enhanced control.
Designed specifically for 2006–2013 Corvette Z06 models, these solid spherical control arm bearings are a direct replacement for factory bushings. They are intended for use in drag racing, track days, and high-performance street driving, where precise handling and reduced camber loss are critical. Installation involves replacing the OE bushings with these engineered spherical joints, which provide a more rigid and predictable connection. The kit includes 10 control arm bushings with mono-ball spherical joints, aluminum housings, and stainless steel shafts, ensuring a robust and reliable upgrade. These bearings are suitable for drivers seeking to optimize their vehicle’s handling and stability under demanding conditions.

Overview
Overview
PFADT Series 10 Control Arm Bearings (460-401004-A) by aFe. Includes: 10 Control Arm Bushings with Mono-Ball Spherical Joints, Aluminum Bearing Housings, Stainless Steel Shafts. aFe Control is proud to release the PFADT Series Solid Spherical Control Arm Bearing Set. OE factory bushings are known to deflect more than a inch in turns which equates to almost 1 degree of lost camber and unpredictable handling. Serious racers finally have an engineered solution for solid spherical control arm bearings.
The elimination of bushing deflection has a number of benefits. The camber required is reduced because no camber change is seen from bushing deflection, resulting in more consistent lap times and a reduction in tire wear. Steering response is greatly improved and becomes sharp, crisp and predictable in all situations. The aFe Control kit replaces all 18 control arm bushings with mono-ball, spherical joints to eliminate friction and deflection. With 108 total components this high quality kit features 6061-T6 aluminum bearing housings which feature a special, Mil spec high corrosion resistant anodizing, CNC machined heat treated 17-4 PH stainless steel shafts, and CNC machined 6061-T6 articulation spacers. The replaceable bearings are Teflon lined for minimum friction, zero maintenance and are manufactured by FK bearing in the USA. This kit is designed to maximize the performance of your race car suspension. Due to the nature of this race part there is an increase in road noise, therefore we do not recommend this for the casual street car and is highly recommended for dedicated track cars.
aFe (Advanced Flow Engineering, Inc.) manufactures performance products for late model cars, light trucks and SUVs. The company was founded in 1999 with an initial concentration on high performance air filters. Since then, the company product line has broadened to include cold air intakes, fluid filters, exhaust systems, intake manifolds, intercoolers, programmers, differential covers, transmission pans and throttle body spacers. The team of engineers, machinists, production and sales people at aFe have many years of experience in their respective positions, and together work to ensure they produce the best automotive products on the market.
