Had some time and bronze extrusion so thought I would try my hand at making some trailing arm bearings. Hopefully these will eliminate the "striction" (sticky friction of synthetic bearings). The ID is 28mm, the OD is 38mm, the flange diameter is 52mm, the flange width is 6.3mm, the overall length is 55mm. To do list: cut an oil groove midlength and crossdrill into this. After pressing these in will drill and thread a grease zerk to intersect the oil groove.

Two hardened washers per side with a thrust bearing in the middle...simple.
Yes you need to grease it..big deal.
