Do you mean bearing as in a spherical type (heim) bearing, or bushing as in rubber or polyurethane?

Both ends have a plastic bushing with a metal tube that slides in it which the bolt slides through. the plastic piece and the metal tube can both move freely and will fall out. Hope this helps describe what you need to know to help me.
