pulled this picture off the internet somewhere. anyone know where i can get a rod end like this? 1/4" fine thread?
<font color="green">Ricky, They use those on cable assemblies in some aircraft. Can't tell you where to find them but maybe you have some sort of aircraft salveage in your area? RASHY </font>
I Checked in McMaster Carr, but did not find them listed. Give an industrial beaing distributor a call I would not be suprized that thay are available. But if you had to you could alway have 2 nest to one another, Or even carefully weld a addition onto a standard one. Id it for a Throttle linkage set up?
Bearing Houses usually carry Heims and rod ends. Their catalogs show the double ones like your photo. I'm sure Santa Barbara has a bearing house and if not, Ventura has one called, surprise - The Bearing House. It's on the Avenue, West side about 2-3 blocks north of main. Just above where Prossers Bakery is - or used to be.... Give em a call.
Ricky- Try Specialty Tool in Goleta..!! When I lived in SB they were THE place to go to find just about ANY odd or unusual fastener at all... (plus they're right across from the airport...)
yeah specialty is good, but the last couple of times i went out there they let me down. plus the cute blond dont work there anymore. check your email.
