An extrudable multi-durometer hydrodynamic bearing which includes a bearing pad support structure and a plurality of bearing pads fused to the bearing pad support structure. The bearing may also include a number of deflection control members fused to the bearing pads and/or the bearing pad support structure. The pad supports of the bearing and movable with six degrees of freedom. The bearing is constructed entirely of non- newtonian fluidic materials and has a constant axial cross-section so that it may be easily extruded. The bearing includes portions having different hardnesses. The method of making the bearing includes the steps of extruding a first material, extruding at least a second material onto the first material prior to curing the first material forming a tubular extrusion, curing the tubular extrusion, cutting the tubular extrusion into bearing segments and sizing the bearing segments by machining the individual bearing segments to the desired inner and outer diameters.
