About this opportunity
Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) is requesting quotes for link assemblies with ball joints for anti-roll/sway bars on bus front suspension, part number 193811, with quotes due September 7, 2026. This solicitation is open to all vendors with no set-asides or preferences stated.
The scope requires link assemblies rated for two units per bus, with nuts included, manufactured to Pailton Engineering specification C5001.00.02. The approved manufacturer is identified as Pailton Engineering Ltd; the solicitation explicitly states "DO NOT SUBSTITUTE" and does not establish approved equals. Quotes must include price, lead time, and part number at the header level; failure to provide all three elements renders the response non-responsive.
Award will be based on best value to LACMTA considering price, lead time, and past performance.

Quote validity must extend 60 days from submission.
Questions or requests for approved equals must be submitted at least three business days before the September 7 close.
