May 5, 201212 yr Author comment_389169 Those are spherical bearings, cups, sleeves, and spacers that go into the front lower control arm replacing the stock bushing.Hi John,Thank you for the reply. Tha box was full of Carrera stuff, coil-overs, these ,camberplates and four shocks.Would you know in what order they assemble?Cheers, Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/43128-suspension-parts-id/#findComment-389169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 5, 201212 yr comment_389171 Without measuring with my calipers, my guess would be:From the front of the car: short spacer, short cup, spherical bearing, long cup, long spacer, and the sleeves go in the bearing and around the bolt.This only a guess from a picture on the internet so if you assemble these parts and die, tough luck.

If you were to install them what order would you do it?

May 5, 201212 yr comment_389177 Just be careful and measure everything with a set of calipers. The fit needs to be tight to keep movement from pounding out the bearings or the cups. I'm also not sure from the picture how the bearings are captured by the cups. Is everything a press fit in the lower control arm or are c-clips required?

I'm also not sure from the picture how the bearings are captured by the cups. Is everything a press fit in the lower control arm or are c-clips required?Its all press fit. I assembled it in the order you mentioned and all the pieces fitsperfectly. Would you know the value of this kit?
