Seriously, how the heck do you guys do stuff like this for these prices. With REs price increase these are well over $10 cheaper and they appear to be made better!!

Can you guys make these with threaded rod welded on to make adjustable links? That would be pimp!

As always...

flatbelly7 · 01-14-2005, 09:24 AM

That is an awesome price. I second the adjustability can you guys do that 3/4-16?

How many degrees of misalignment can you achieve with them?

Trail_TJ · 01-14-2005, 12:43 PM

27 degrees

Are these the same size as the ones that allpro uses cause I want to build joint shackes. Thanks

TJ Fan · 01-14-2005, 07:31 PM

Well, I am not sure. All the sizes are listed above so maybe ask this in the yota forum and someone can answer.

thanks,
Larry

jekbrown · 01-14-2005, 10:03 PM

wow, I was pondering RE joints for my toy buggys links but these might be a better option. Definitely more inexpensive. One question though, why nylon for the races? wouldnt UHMW-PE be a better option? Im not a materials expert or anything, but I use UHMW-PE between the leaves in my K5s springs and man that stuff is durable. If its cold flowing on me, its so slow I'll be 849827 years old before it effects performance.

anyway, yeah, I second the call for pre-welded-on threaded rod. how long are those prices good for?

I will answer this one, we have tried UHMW on this product as well as our other joints. It does not work well where there would be a load or shock. It initially deforms or compresses and becomes loose and noisy. This is fixable by adjusting but we felt it was an inferior plastic. We have switched to the special nylon to overcome this condition and it has worked very well for almost a year of testing.

fj40john · 01-18-2005, 04:56 PM

I'm guessing Summit Machine.....

They also manufacture the Jimmy Joints for Poly Performance and were the original manufacturers of the RE Joints, before RE bought their own tooling to do it all in-house...

I wouldn't recomend it. That would only leave .070 wall thickness on the neckdown of the ball.

stadlerm · 01-29-2005, 12:04 PM

price of 4 sent to 81657

TJ Fan · 01-29-2005, 03:45 PM

If you need then....call us. I usually do not respond to PM's or posts because I have shops that need attending too. We are at the shop Mon-Sat and working late due to our greatly increased custom axle business.
