With all of our product threads spread out so far, I thought that I could make one post with all of our current product. Here we can answer all questions related to our Ballistic Joints.

http://www.ballisticfabrication.com/assets/images/rodends/bremrk2a.jpg


Introducing our newest in high performance suspension, the 4340 Billet Ballistic Rod End delivers the best. Offering 70 degrees of misalignment and a rebuildable bearing race, these joints will outlast the traditional rod end.

Why choose these joints over traditional rod ends?

First and most obvious, these are rebuildable for only a fraction of the cost of a 1.25" heim. These are machined from billet heat treated 4340. You won't find many mainstream manufacturers that will tell you what their "alloy" rod ends consist of. A lot of manufacturers do not machine from billets, they are finished from forgings, and nearly all of them begin life in China. The Ballistic Rod Ends are a true grease-able joint that is not metal/metal. That means longer life and a quieter joint. We incorporate a 3.5" shank, about 1.25" longer than any heim on the market today. Last, these are 100% made in the USA from USA derived raw product.


-Machined from Billet 4340 pre-treat steel
-100% rebuildable using solid nylatron races
-1.25" shank standard
-9/16", 5/8", and 3/4" bores available, all with 2.625" mounting width
-70 degrees of total movement with a 9/16" ball.
-Bearing machined from 4130 then hard chrome plated
-MIL-SPEC grade, in use on prototype military vehicles currently
-100% made in the USA!

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 .485" wall (nearly 1/2" thick!) housing accomodates 34 degrees of total misalignment. 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. All joints include full zinc plating. Sold individually.

Choose from a 1.0" 14 tpi., 1.25 12 tpi stud, or try an industry first, the massive 1.5" - 12tpi stud available in both right or left hand thread.

The 2.63" Forged Chromoly Ballistic Joint is made to be the ultimate in durability and ease of use. 100% made in the USA, this joint was manufactured and designed for military use and quality, and meets all MIL-SPEC standards. Forged from solid 4140 steel, the forging is then quenched, tempered and then normalized in a dedicated heat treating facility, providing a yield strength of 208,000 psi and a tensile strength of 238,000 psi! Finish machining is performed after heat treat to ensure a perfect fit.

Using Nylatron GS races with nickel plated bearings, these joints are smooth, long lasting and quiet. The 2.63" Ballistic Joint uses no snap rings to retain the races, instead a retainer is forged into the housing. The opposite side uses a threaded spanner nut and set screw. Also, we've added a lot of material to the grease zerk / set screw area to add a much greater resistance to splitting. Any play that might develop over time can be removed by adjusting the spanner nut. All forged joints are clear "silver" zinc coated.

Designed to be a drop-in replacement for lower control arms on TJ / XJ jeeps using the 9/16" bore. Also available is a 5/8" bore for added reliability and versatility. For those seeking a 3/4" bore, check out our 3.0" Ultra Duty Ballistic Joint. The Ballistic Joint is fully rebuildable and is the strongest joint on the market of it's kind. Offers 30 degrees total misalignment with a 9/16" ball.

They also work perfectly in combination with our Ballistic Joints for the highest overall performance and comfort.

The Ballistic Poly Bushing's large outer diameter allows the use of a larger inner sleeve. Choose from a variety of bolt hole sizes 9/16", 5/8", and 3/4". Also choose from 3/4", 7/8", 1.0", and 1.25" threaded shanks available in both right hand and left hand.

WOW... the 2.63" joints have been flying off the shelf! If you really want the ultimate in strength and longevity, try the 3.0" Ballistic joint for your lower links or a convergence point such as a wishbone or 'one-link', you won't be disappointed... plus we are almost always stocked on 3.0" joints!

Yes you can remove the bushing so you can weld on the housing.

These have suddenly become a top seller of ours, we believe that it is a much better alternative to the Chevy leaf spring bushings due to it's sheer size as well as it's standardized 2.625" mounting width. Brackets are easy to find, and if it's advertised that the bracket fits a 1.25" rod end or 2.625" cartridge joint, you're in business.
