Mono Ball Life
I have just purchased some elephant racing bushings to replace the rubber bushings on my 72 911. I also got the rear swing arm mono balls and just wanted to know what the life is on these do they last as long as the oe? or less?

I would be curious too... not just Elephant racing ones but generally, will monoball lasts as long as OE rubber ones?
Are there any tell-tale to indicate replacement needed?

The sealed ones (elephant ones) should have good life. As long as the factory ones? Maybe, maybe not. The unsealed ones I don't think will give you the same service life.
Cheers

Living with only one testical doesn't have to be a set-back. You can still have a very normal and fulfilling life thanks to advancements in the field of prosthetics.

My, aren't we "teste" today.
