      An old thread I know, but I now have the same problem with the bearing on my n/s QRS top mount knocking after only about 8k miles

      Does anyone know where I can get replacement spherical bearings for these and the correct size?

      Thanks

        Hi Mark,

        A forum member came up with a replacement bearing design, but for the life of me I can't remember who although Wabtheking seems to ring a bell.

          Mark,
          I have been trying to find thread where a company was mentioned selling the same top mounts but can't for the life of me find it - sorry I know this is not much help.
          I changed my front ones back to the green rubber ones and this has transformed the ride in the car. I think with coilovers and the qrs topmounts all around the ride was just too harsh before.
          Maybe someone else can come up with the company?
          Cheers

            Is this the one you were thinking of?



            We should have some feedback on these soon as T2Andy is having them fitted to his car this week.

                I'm donating my old QRS top mounts to a fellow forum member, but only the locking collars are needed. You're welcome to a used bearing. They didn't really have many miles on them before they were changed for ProMounts. It might take me a while to get them in the post though, as I'm usually at work when the Post Office is open. Collection would be best, but London to Solihull or Atherstone isn't exactly around the corner, just for a bearing.

                  Thanks for the replies fellas, Ben has steered me over to Robo who has the part# of the bearing and where to get them.

                  Cheers

                  PS Robo I have emptied my inbox, Ta

                    OK Robo gave the part number (ge17fw) and from that I have managed to get the bearing sizes (in the pic below).

                    In the end using the bearing specs I cross referenced and found that Demon Tweeks stock them, they are in the red 2008 motorsport catalogue on page 417, P# GEG17ET-2RS.

                    I got them from DT in the end due to ease of ordering from them, perfect fit

                    HTH anyone needing them in the future.

                    Cheers
