History of the Roller Top

Ford selected the original roller bearing top mount from the Mk2 Cortina 1600E parts bin. It's function was twofold - The tapered roller bearings can take large axial forces (ie. they are good thrust bearings). Such forces are often experienced upon ‘bump' mode of a Macpherson strut, but they also exhibit low friction under thrust, thus offering low steering effort.
