Message	Hey Guys, So I'm replacing the kingpin arm on the drivers side because it was bent from the accident. I have a used replacement I was going to install, but when I pulled the dust cap I noticed the original (90TT) arm on the car has a sealed bearing (rubber seal), where the used replacement has an open bearing (no seal and you can see the ball bearings). A quick Google search showed replacements to have this "open" bearing. Did Nissan switch from a sealed to open bearing at some point? Is it safe to use this open bearing kingpin arm on my car? Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks! Jay 90 Twin Turbo Track Build - jsworks.org for more info!
