I can see putting a cylindrical bearing in the front control arm after getting it perfectly lined up and it would work quite well as long as you don't need to adjust caster or wheelbase at the bearing/bracket.
On the rear trailing arm, I don't see how a "non-spherical bearing" could work.
The trailing arm has to pivot with the camber curve, as well as up and down movement.
What are people using? Is there a commercially available "non-spherical bearing" that has some kind of bushing around it to allow movement?
Maybe you could mount a small plain bearing on a thin steel plate that can allow some flex without fatiguing and cracking.
I don't get this rule. Why not just allow a spherical bearing that can move in the proper way with the geometry involved. If you just install a non spherical bearing solidly in the trailing arm there will be flexing of the body or trailing arm during normal travel, and it will definitely bind and cause some strange handling, and may even cause the body or trailing arm to break eventually.
