I had a set of roller bearings on The Beast and now would like to install a set on Leeloo. Are Mueller's roller bearings still sold by any company or is there a secret stash I can dip into?
Thanks, Bill P. |

No parts left. I could to another run, but it's quite an investment that would pretty much sit on the shelf. We could see about another group buy.
I've never used, but like the look of the stuff from Rebel Racing Products. |

Hey Guys,
Thanks for the update. I suspected as much. I've been looking at the Rebel stuff and I could probably do something of theirs to help with the stiction. Bill P. |

As an option, you may consider the Elephant Poly Bronze set-up.
I have that on the rear of my car. Free moving. I hope to do the fronts this year, too. KT |

The roller bearings work. You will notice an immediate improvement is suspension response. |
