Suspesion bearing.

What is the correct spec on the 4 bearing on front suspension on gt40 monocoque, they are named as BR 8R 8 needed on front, on rear BR10R 2 needed I think Shafer is producing the bearings and they are for aviation
As far as I know , these bearings are veeeeeery expencive ,is there replacement bearings with same quality but to a lower cost ?
What do superformance use on the monocoque cars?
Regards Rune

Re: Suspesion bearing.

I doubt if you will find cheap aerospace bearings to the same tolerances and specification.
If you go the Shafer route for originality, you will have to order a minimum quantity batch to be specially made for you which obviously costs a great deal more.
