Aurora Rod Ends
Pegasus Auto Racing currently stocks 12 different series of Aurora Rod End Bearings (not including "special" sizes). Nearly all of the rod ends we stock have 3-piece, all-steel construction with self-lubricating PTFE liners, but the similarities end there.
This page has been assembled to make it easier to compare the different series by highlighting the pros and cons of each. It is not intended to be an exhaustive reference guide. For more in-depth information, please consult the specification page for each series.
