Default Where to buy Adjustable Ends for Strut Bar??

I am not sure what to even call them. Many ebay bars have this fitting they use on both ends to adjust the length of the strut bar. Where can I find those adjustable links??

Here is a picture of what I am talking about.


I need the assembly that threads into the strut bar itself to adjust the length.

you can get them tons of places, teflon lined ones are preferred/better but for a strut bar the quality doesn't matter too much. I get mine from http://www.swracecars.com/
only because they are fairly local and good people jegs etc sells them

I know what a heim joint is, but this is not a heim joint. The heim joint I am typically use to seeing has a rotating assembly in the center.

All this is, is a open hole and then you have the bolt that runs through the mount and into the hole of the fitting itself then back out the other side of the mount.

Then you're looking for just an Eye Bolt?

you are dealing with a clevis joint and you need a solid rod end a.k.a. crappy heim joint

the first item on this page
http://www.swracecars.com/shop...+Ends



I leave it up to you to find the right size etc

they can also be called solid rod eye's instead of ends
