Johnny joints on a trackbar - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Well I'm getting a tera track bar for a good price. And he was telling me he had a hard time trying to keep the ball joint tight. So he ended up buying a new track-bar. He told me i could just cut off the ball joint and weld some johnny joints on. Any ideas how? what size? where to get them? whats the cost?
thanks for any info.

Hey Toadies! Ya can get 'em from Currie and Spidertrax and a buttload of others. Why wouldn't the nut stay tight? Try locktite or just hammer the nut on the side before ya install it...I live in Dallas over here by White Rock Lake, we can get together and 'fix' it if ya want to.
