https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/hot-rod-wishbone-mounts.1058047/ Suppose to be a 3/4 -16 rod end for rear radius rod. I have looked and can not figure out where to purchase them. Anybody know?
I don't understand your question. The part shown uses an 11/16" tie rod end. Are you wondering where you can find a similar part, but uses a 3/4" heim rod end?
Yes. Here is another link to one without the grease zerk fitting. I was thinking something a bit stronger on the rear would be nice. https://www.hotrodhotline.com/content/selecting-rod-ends-story-photos-jim-clark-hot-rod-md#.YeQ1HR0kqi6 You have to scroll down a bit on the left side of the page to see it. When they talk about using it on the rear for more strength.
On the rear, if you use heim ends, you might want to put a plate on either side of the rod end, "sandwiching" it between. This will be a lot stronger than a bracket like is shown in your first link.
A Goggle search shows a bunch. Are you specifically looking for one with a grease fitting? Try an off road site.
You are missing a word. That is not a "rod end" that is a tie rod end. As Squirrel mentioned, these are most often 11/16" not 3/4". Please double check your measurement. The major diameter of 11/16" threads is nominally 0.6875". If you have confirmed that the threads are 3/4-16, then part ES2847RT-K is the tie rod end from a Jeep Cherokee XJ, has right-hand 3/4-16 threads.
I don't believe I said anything about the cast aluminum mounts, and no I am not using them. All I asked was a source for the rod end. If they are on rear radius rods I would think you could call them rod ends or tie rod ends, sorry for the confusion. As for measurements, I am not trying to replicate something I already have. Being a Tool & Die maker I believe I can measure something just fine. The Jeep Part number may be one, thanks for the suggestion.
More Information for ULTRA-POWER ES394R (rockauto.com) 3/4 unf the pin is a tiny = 1mm too long for an early for steering arm
Just saw this and went out in the garage to check the part numbers. If you're looking for a tie rod end beefier than the usual old Ford 11/16-18 rod ends, Moog and NAPA sell a tie rod end that is threaded 3/4-16 both right and left hand threads, part numbers ES150R and ES150L. Note however that the tapered stud is larger in diameter, that means reaming the tapered eye to fit, using a 7 degree tapered reamer. These used to be sold in the oval track oriented catalogs as heavy duty rod ends. They are significantly larger than the usual old Ford tie rod end.
CE supplies these 3/4" tie rod ends for their split wishbone kit, I have used them on 3 different 40 fords I think they may be referred to as "Chevy" 3/4" tie rod ends
Just be aware that Ford used 7 degree tapers, and GM used 10 degree tapers. Speedway sells reamers for both tapers
these are dodge w150 pick up or d150 i can't remember 3/4'' unf left and right they are 12 inches per foot taper - 7 degrees, they pull into the taper of a stock 37 ford steering arm - the pin protrudes 1mm so you need to use a 14mm washer 2mm thick under the castellated nut - AND run longer nuts = I was going to make some drag and tie rod links with them..... but managed to use a stock solid 37 drag link and nibble a few mm from it and the tie rod
