Precision Turned Pivot Balls for Consistent Steering

Engineered for the XRAY XB8, the XRAY 353172 pivot balls use quality steel and precise machining to maintain suspension alignment under load. The 11.0mm diameter ensures an accurate fit that supports steady steering response during competitive use.

Streamlined Tuning with the XPBS Framework

The XPBS pivot ball system focuses tuning on kingpin plates while relying on robust pivot balls to hold geometry. This design reduces the need for complex component swaps and keeps adjustments focused and repeatable.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Are these pivot balls compatible with aftermarket carriers?

Compatibility depends on the carrier's bore and kingpin spacing. Compare dimensions to the XB8 spec or consult the carrier maker before fitting.

What advantages do steel pivot balls give on asphalt tracks?

On smooth surfaces steel maintains shape and alignment better than softer materials, helping retain precise steering and consistent lap times through longer sessions.

How should I check for wear during maintenance?

Look for any side-to-side play, rough spots when rotating, and signs of corrosion. Replace a pivot ball if movement or roughness appears to protect surrounding suspension parts.

Can I use these with ceramic bearings or special lubricants?

Ceramic bearings and compatible lubricants can work with steel pivot balls, but ensure grease or oil does not attract grit into the contact areas; keep interfaces clean for best results.
