Hard to say now, its been so long since i've driven a stock evo6, but from what I can remember it did sorta feel like the suspension moved a bit more freely, but you're talking to a guy whos bloody dense when it comes to change on the car.

my local dealership could not get them. I have checked, they will only sell a whole arm for 250 some odd dollars. Not trying to go farther OT, but what does not have spherical bearings already in the rear?

They're full of ****, read here for help: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...arm-clunk.html

Arms that don't have spherical bearings in the rear are:
Trailing arm
Toe control arm (does have this neat sliding bush though)
Upper arm
Lower arm shock mount

211ratsbud, if you can't find them, pick me up 2 Aurora spherical bearings and I'll send you my OEMs.

Wow, not sure what Aurora's you are looking at but the ones I got are great and they are closer to $40 a pop.

performance series (PNB-T and PWB-T)
Stainless race, alloy ball, PTFE lining
Not the lowest breakaway torque, but nice and tight on slop.

Anyone used the Cusco rear trailing arms with pillow *****?
I'm talking about the entire arm, not just a bushing kit.
