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.

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.
