We are probably going to be getting PTFE rod ends but have been told they need breaking in. I know how to do this but was wondering how long each one takes as we would have quite a few to do.

theres a huge post thats already gone around and around. i think it was "Spherical Bearings in A-arms" Plus I think the Aurora catalog tells you what to do.
Erich Ohlde Jayhawk Motorsports Systems Engineer All electrical components and wiring harnesses depend on proper circuit functioning, which is the transmission of charged ions by retention of the visible spectral manifestation known as "smoke". Smoke is the thing that makes electrical circuits work. Don't be fooled by scientists and engineers talking about excited electrons and the like. Smoke is the key to all things electrical |

screw em into a 1 foot bar, put a bolt through em and spin em on a lathe at about 500 rpm. Takes about a minute a peice. At least thats how we've done ours the past few years.

This was covered a bit in here http://fsae.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/125607348/m/16410207621
It seemed as if the idea of breaking in PFTE lined bearings was a bad one, but I'm keen to hear peoples stories with success or failure in doing it. |
