I am using them in my car. You are talking about the upper spherical bushings for the upper control arm at the rear diff location correct? If so yes I am using them and they eliminate binding, allow for a more precise pinion angle adjustment and help the car plant harder. I pull 1.52 60 ft times with this set up. I think you will like them.

Yep, sherical bearings are what i was wondering about.
from what you tell me I'll get them as i know I'll have a bad time getting my car to hook. Nothing about the car, it's the drag-way. Out in the middle of the Arizona desert and that means sand/dust every place.....
BTW, what all is it to install them?
