Polished Stainless Support Bearing

The Polished Stainless Support Bearing by BORGESON (MPN 720000) is a precision steering shaft support component engineered for custom and high-performance vehicle builds where steering column flex or vibration compromises handling feel and safety. This spherical rod-end support bearing eliminates steering slop common in heavily modified suspension systems, restorations, and race applications where OEM steering geometry has been altered. Mechanics and fabricators rely on this component to maintain positive steering response and reduce fatigue-induced column movement during hard cornering or prolonged use.

This polished stainless steel bearing features a 3/4-16 inch right-hand male thread design with included jam nuts for secure, vibration-resistant fastening. The spherical rod-end geometry allows angular articulation while maintaining radial load capacity, essential when custom steering linkage routes don't align perfectly with stock column centerlines. Stainless construction resists corrosion in underhood and exposed mounting locations, while the polished finish adds durability and aesthetic appeal. At 0.71 lbs with compact dimensions (3.7 × 1.3 × 5.15 inches), it integrates seamlessly into tight engine bays and custom fabrication work without adding significant weight or bulk.

Fabricators, restoration specialists, and off-road builders benefit most from this support bearing when installing aftermarket steering boxes, custom column angles, or independent front suspension conversions. Installation requires the 3/4-inch diameter steering shaft and threaded mounting points compatible with 3/4-16 specifications; verify fitment with your fabrication plan before ordering. The kit configuration with jam nuts simplifies assembly and ensures long-term security against loosening from steering vibration and impact loads. Whether tightening steering geometry on a vintage hot rod, custom truck build, or race vehicle, this BORGESON bearing delivers the precision support necessary for confident, predictable steering control.
