The aFe PFADT Series Solid Spherical Control Arm Bearings are high-performance upgrade components designed for the Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06 from 2006 to 2013. These control arm bearings feature mono-ball spherical joints, aluminum bearing housings, and stainless steel shafts, providing a significant improvement over OE factory bushings. By eliminating deflection during cornering, which can exceed an inch and cause nearly 1 degree of camber loss, these bearings deliver enhanced handling precision and stability. Constructed with durable materials, they are engineered to withstand aggressive driving conditions and reduce unpredictable handling characteristics, making them ideal for track use or spirited driving.

Designed specifically for the C6 Z06, these control arm bearings serve as a direct replacement for the factory bushings, offering a solid spherical connection that improves suspension responsiveness. Installation involves replacing the existing bushings with these mono-ball joints, providing a more predictable and consistent handling experience. The set includes 18 control arm bushings with stainless steel shafts and aluminum housings, ensuring a robust and long-lasting upgrade. Suitable for street, track, or performance driving, these bearings are an essential upgrade for enthusiasts seeking maximum control and precision in their Corvette's suspension system.

Overview

PFADT Series 18 Control Arm Bearings (460-401003-A) by aFe. Includes: 18 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.
