Default TracTek Lower control arms

I've seen a new lower control arm bushing, made by tractek, and available from some of our sponsors. The bushing is unusual in that it has an outer rubber bushing, with an center hard poly ball. It's supposed to eliminate the binding associated with poly bushings, and eliminate the softer rubber flexing. Anyone have any experience with these? My vert is street driven, but I like it to handle turns.

Sounds good. but why not just use harder rubber? Like the moog ones or 1LE?

I have seen a company using these on their LCAs. Do a search on ebay and you should find them.
There is a thread here debating their effectiveness; if I can find it I will post a link.
Short answer; it is an unknown at this time. Although we would appreciate it if you volunteer to be a guinea pig and let us know the results...
BTW, which sponsors are offering them?
