RockJock Johnny Joint Rod End 2in Forged 2.975in X .500in Ball 3/4in-16 LH Thread Shank

This 2-inch forged Johnny Joint rod end from RockJock is built for fabricators and suspension builders who need serious articulation. Unlike a standard heim joint, which typically offers around 22 degrees of movement, this joint allows for a full 30 degrees of unrestricted movement in any direction. That extra range is crucial for custom suspension setups where you need the wheels to follow the terrain without binding.

The secret to its flexibility and durability lies in the high-density urethane bushings that surround the heat-treated, cross-drilled center ball. This design not only provides cushioning that a heim joint can't match but also allows for easy lubrication through the zerk fitting. The joint internals are secured by two heavy-duty, heat-treated side washers and a snap ring, ensuring it stays together under stress. This particular unit features a 2.975-inch mounting width ball with a 0.500-inch thru-bolt hole and a 3/4-inch-16 left-hand threaded shank, all finished in a gold zinc plating for corrosion resistance.
