best for rod ends
 

I'm looking to possibly make my own 4 link short arms for the tj. Just wondering where/who has the best ends....? I've searched around but they're all back and forth. Or would it be cheaper to just buy a set off the shelf?

ruff stuff all the way!! also you dont wanna cheap rodend, when they break it takes other expensive parts with it

I read a thread that they tend to rust quickly... true or is the problem fixed...?

had mine sense built buggy, no rust and no breakage! i try wd40 them every time i can remember which is rare! no slop and and no breakage! i tryed johnny joints for awhile in other rigs and they got slop quickly. i also store my buggy in garage

Yep, RuffStuff are the ones.I've beat mine since the axle swap,no issues.I lube mine with Motor Kote spray after every wheeling trip no signs of rust or wear.

Anyone know what heim for stock tj mounts?

You need to measure the width of the mounts and the diameter of the bolt hole.

Send Dan (the owner of Ruff Stuff) an email with your question and he will point you imn the right direction. He is a good guy. His email is on the Ruff Stuff site. :thumbup:

Ok. Will do

They will even answer your questions over the phone.I've talked to them a few times on the phone,great customer service and always glad to help.

qs componets in indiana ive had good experierence w them. only bought the chromoly teflon ones though. spring for the stainless misalighnment spacers vs the steel ones though no matter what. imho

I read that wd40 breaks down the teflon coating. Not right away or anything but over time. I hear its best to use stuff called Triflow. They sell it at bike shops. I hear its better for metal-metal contact.

I am a rod end dealer now if anyone else needs any rod ends.
