Best place to get decent/cheap rod ends

Post by **Trailduster79** » Tue Mar 06, 2007 3:16 pm

I am going to need two 3/4 rod ends.

Going to be for the drag link on my sammy. Don't want to/can't afford to spend an arm and a leg on them.

Will need two rod ends, two jam nuts, two weld in adapters or a piece of threaded tube.

What's the best place with the cheapest prices?

I have 2 weld in inserts from a peice of tube Leach gave me. If you carefully grind off the weld I think they could be reused if you want them. 1.5" .25 wall tube, dont know the thread info.

Sounds good to me. Is it something you could send with the axle this weekend?

Could save me 20 bucks or so if they are what I need.

I will chop them off and send them your way.

Stallings,

ballistic fab has their 3/4-16 inserts on sale this month for 5.99 here

http://ballisticfabrication.3dcartstore ... -1457.html

Definately the best price I've seen anywhere. As for rod ends themselves, I've seen them around $25+ pretty much everywhere.

That's what I figured. I will probably just get them from ballistic fab unless someone else runs a sale on them on pirate.
