We have tube adapters for 2.25" OD tube, then use a threaded shank... Or you can do what we do and throw the tube in the mill and machine two flats 3/16" deep on either side of the tube, which is really the easiest way to cope them to 3" as well...

jeepfamily
02-17-2008, 09:35 AM
about 2" long flat on the tube?I am going to have to call my buddy with a mill to see if he can handle it.:D thanks for the advice!!!!!!!

DrVic723
02-17-2008, 10:06 AM
The flat only needs to be about .75" along the tube, but needs to be at least .250" deep (assuming you have sufficient wall thickness). Have him cope the tube to 3.0" while he has it all fixtured as well

i need 16 of the 3" joints. do you have the spanner tool for the 3"? i didnt see it on the site. Also i need a bunch of you link mounts. Can i get them in 3/8" plate the with 3" joint width and 3/4 holes for these joints? send me a pm, please.

DrVic723
02-24-2008, 02:05 PM
Yes you can get all of those parts, but you will need to call for custom pricing.

We have 3" spanners, but do not have them listed because they are in tight supply right now.

I'll get back to you on misalignment, but both are very comparable to eachother.

No,but I can post pics of how we use the 3.0" joints in house... but you'll need a mill. The housing is 2.0" wide on the 3.0" joint and only 1.875 on the 2.63" joints.

Just recieved my 16 2.63 joints, look good, but you may wanna think about threading for the retainer nut after the setscrew hole is tapped, mine have a nasty burr in them. My only complaint is my email I sent a day after I ordered, requesting you to add a spanner tool to my order, never got answered. And its not worth the shipping just for that. It is my fault for forgetting to order it with the joints, but i would expect a reply anyway.

What is the width of the 2.63 joint? I mean the width where the bolt goes through. Is it 2.63? or is that the width of the can?

I also need a perch style mount for the joint to sit in. Maybe with a 3 inch flat base. I want to use this as a mount for an anti-wrap bar. I will bolt a shackle to the joint, and the other end of the shackle will be a bushing at the end of the wrap bar which goes to the axle.

So i need pricing on the small joint, and a perch mount.

Thanks,
Neal.

Don't forget the 'pirate' discount!

The Massive 3.0" rebuildable Ultra Duty BALLISTIC joint exclusively from Ballistic Fabrication is built to withstand extreme punishment. It's extra large 3/4" bore (bolt hole) is large enough to handle heavy torque, while the huge 3.0" diameter .320" wall housing accomodates over 25 degrees of misalignment both ways. The giant 2" ball distubutes the forces over a larger surface area and translates into a better ride and longer life as well as superior strength. The BALLISTIC joint features solid billet Nylatron GS races that won't deform under load and provides a smooth bearing surface for a noise free ride. Fully greasable and rebuildable. Sold individually.

Choose from a 7/8" 14 tpi, 1.0" 14 tpi. or 1.25 12 tpi stud available in both right or left hand thread.

Is the forged joint and the forged bushing total width 2.65? I saw that the housing was 1.875. I can't tell if there were any dimentions on the pic that was posted of the bracket.


Thanks,
Jason

The 2.63" mounting width perfectly matches most of our brackets intended to be used with our 2.63" Ballistic Joints.

Correct me if I am wrong but there 2.63 wide. I am sure the rep will chime in.

That is correct, both are 2.63". The 3.0" joints are 3.0" wide. Thanks - Jeff

I have a question and need some prices

MY question is. i know that people normally use a larger joint for the lower links. So would i need to use a 3" joint on the bottom and 2.63" on the top or would 2.63 work fine both ways???


So i need price for (4) 2.63" joints to 30277

also (2) 2.63" and (2) 3.0" joints to 30277

Thanks

I'll make sure I get to this in the morning, I don't normally follow our older threads now that we have our own forum, but thanks for the inquiry.
