ALFAGTV6.COM

I just did a poly unit in my street Verde - so much easier to install and will never be noisy as far as I can tell... Feels good and tight now.

I have an SZ original Alfa part, but it seems to be missing spacers or something at each end to take up the space between the two ends of the cross-member... (I have the housing part and the center ball part but I must be missing something?

For the two 3.7s Jes and I ordered two of Ron Simon's beautiful billet units and they come with two machined ball-spacers for top and bottom ... Harder to press in and we have not driven with them yet, but they appear like they will do fine...

Your missing the 2 spacers and circlip.
do you wish to sell the parts you have ?

Here are all the SZ Uniball parts numbers as shown on cd catalog!

Does anyone knows wich parts needed for the instalation in a GTV beside the uniball, spacers, circlip, housing ? anything else I need from this list ?

Actually the circlip is there too... Sure, I'll sell it if you can find the two spacers...

Where are you located?

Email me at john@reginaceleste.com or call me at 425.941.4747.

Cheers, John

Thanks John

I did!

Ok,
the spherical bearing is made by SCHAUBLIN (in Delemont?), and says
UNIBAL SSE20.
It is in a nice Alfa box marked 0060552102, which corresponds to part #4 on the diagram.

My local bearing supply house was able to get me an SSE20, for a lot less than 100.
I'll bet if you ordered 10 of them the price would go down more.
You know, all of this stuff besides the bearing looks like you could make it on a lathe. I am still convinced that the aluminium housing is WAY too small. I did NOT try heating it in an oven, and freezing the unibal, but I guess that is possible. I haven't put a mike on the two of them, but there seems to be a big size discrepency. I opened up the ID of the housing to get it to fit, and have had no issues.

Thanks a lot Al!!

the SSE unibal is still aviable http://www.schaublin.ch/catalogues/Unibal45-47.pdf

Very usefull information, Thanks

This might be old. but I got a 2nd 75 basket case that need a ton of parts.
and IAP seem to be out. so I started looking for the parts.
and it seems that a Aurora Bearing COM-M20 is the same as the SCHAUBLIN UniBal SSE20

so I did a google search and found this

$32.69

way cheaper...
I did get the aluminum housing. but still need the 2 spacers. The alfa were steel I had on my other car. if I milled it out of aluminum do you think it would be a problem. It seem like it would work to me. as it is just a spacer and reduces the hole in the bearing to the bolt size.

I just noticed I need the COM-M20T

the T is the PTFE liner
