The major disadvantage is that if dirt gets in those bearings, they =
will be
wrecked in short order. They're positioned right there at the bottom =
of the
car. So, I'd suspect that their service life will be short (but =
sweet). I'd
go for some nice delrin bushings and make sure that they're well =
lubricated.

Other than the price, what could be a dissadvantage to a more solid =
road
feel. Even for a daily driver. I was actually thinking about doing =
this.
And it bolts on the rear beam.
