RockJock Johnny Joint Rod End 2 1/2in Forged 2.625in X .562in Ball 1 1/4in-12 LH Thread Shank

If you're building a custom suspension system or fabricating your own control arms, you need a rod end that can handle serious articulation. This Johnny Joint rod end from RockJock is designed for those demanding builds, offering a full 40 degrees of unrestricted movement in any direction. That's significantly more than you'd get from a standard heim joint, giving your suspension a much wider range of motion.

What sets the Johnny Joint apart is its design. Instead of just a metal-on-metal pivot, it uses a high-density urethane bushing that encases the heat-treated center ball. This not only allows for that impressive range of motion but also provides a level of cushioning that a heim joint simply can't match. The center ball is cross-drilled for easy lubrication through the zerk fitting, and the whole assembly is held together with heavy-duty washers and a snap ring. This particular joint features a 2 1/2 inch forged body, a 2.625 inch ball with a .562 inch thru-bolt hole, and a 1 1/4 inch-12 left-hand thread on the shank for your fabrication needs. It's finished in a gold zinc plating for a solid look.
