Description
Make Your Classic Ford Suspension Move Freely
The stock rubber spring perch creates bind at one of the most important pivot points in the front suspension. Opentracker Roller Spring Perches replace that rubber-bushing resistance with smooth sealed-bearing movement, helping your car ride smoother, respond quicker, and feel more stable under braking and cornering. Also known as roller bearing spring perches, coil spring saddles, spring seats, or upper arm spring seats for classic Ford and Mercury front suspensions.

Opentracker Racing is the ORIGINAL home of the Roller Spring Perch invented by John Dinkel. Our spring perches are sold in pairs & use sealed roller bearings as the pivot point instead of a rubber bushing. This upgrade provides a huge gain in ride quality, responsiveness to the road, stability under braking and handling. The entire weight of the front end rides on these two pivot points so when it moves freely, the car rides smoother and has better handling. The stock rubber bushing greatly increases the effort required for the suspension to move causing a rough ride and poor handling.

The vast improvement in performance and handling using roller suspension is why we do what we do. Removing bind from the suspension and steering pivot points provide a noticeable gain to any performance driven vehicle.
“AT OPENTRACKER RACING, WE BELIEVE THE FORD/MERCURY MUSTANG/FALCON/FAIRLANE/TORINO/RANCHERO/COMET/ COUGAR ETC., SHOULD HAVE COME FROM THE FACTORY WITH ROLLER SPRING PERCHES.”
Not Sure Where to Start?
Roller Spring Perches are one of the best first upgrades for improving how a classic Ford front suspension moves. If you are planning shocks, sway bars, an alignment, a Shelby/Arning drop, or a full front suspension refresh, we can help you choose the right combination.
