A bearing housing may comprise a cylindrical body and a groove formed in an inner surface of the cylindrical body. The groove may be configured to interface with a bearing. A tapered surface may be formed on an outer diameter of the cylindrical body. A wear plate may be disposed over the tapered surface. An elastic material may be between the tapered surface and the wear plate. The tapered surface may be conical. A length of the tapered surface may be less than half the length of the bearing housing. The tapered surface may be tapered at an angle based on a deflection angle of the piston. A second tapered surface may be formed on the outer diameter of the cylindrical body. An elastic material may be between the second tapered surface and the wear plate.
