Abstract

An apparatus is provided for an aircraft. This aircraft apparatus includes a link, a spherical bearing, a damper and a fastener. The link extends longitudinally from a first end of the link to a second end of the link. The link includes a receptacle at the first end of the link. The spherical bearing is disposed within the receptacle. The spherical bearing includes a race element and a ball element. The race element is radially between and engages the ball element and the link. The damper includes a damper ring and an outer spacer ring that is bonded to the damper ring. The damper ring axially engages the ball element at an inner peripheral region of the damper ring. The damper ring axially engages the link at an outer peripheral region of the damper ring through the outer spacer ring. The fastener projects through the spherical bearing and the damper.
