If on the south coast try Solent bearings http://www.solent-bearings.co.uk/ when i last look at mcgillmotorsports they didnt do the bigger size ends. I use pos25 this has a m24 thread with a 2mm pitch for my aframe joint. The thing about standard rod ends is they don't last long before there is some play in the joint and starts clonking... but least its a lot easier to change than the standard lr joint hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
