Rod End Maintenance Tip

Only use Tri-Flow to service rod ends. Using WD-40, PB Blaster, or similar products will cause internal damage and void the warranty.

Tips to Help Prevent Any Seized or Warped Threads

  • Correctly adjust welder settings and start your puddle on the tube (too much heat will warp the threads).
  • Do not weld the tube adapter with the rod end threaded inside.
  • Wait until fully cooled before threading rod ends into adapters.

Can't beat the price. The fit and finish was very good quality. Threads were clean and spun on as expected. The nylon liner to ball clearance was good allowing the balls to articulate smoothly. I did have a problem with the misalignment spacers though~as I rotated the ball/spacer to 30 degrees misalignment the edge of the spacer sat higher than the ball and would catch and bind on the liner. I did some additional machining to provide the needed clearance.
